Located on the river flowing through Dun Valley, the Falls Landmark had become the foci for the energy of the Ethian shards that had fallen nearby. Adventurers around sapience found that the falls could be affected by blood sacrifice. By taking corpses to the butchers located within the city-states, buckets could be filled with their blood. When the Falls became volatile during Ethian's Crossing, blood could be poured over them to either defile or sanctify the falls. When it was sufficiently defiled the water took on the colour of blood, becoming known as The Blood Falls and produced Essence for Necromancy users. If the falls had been sufficiently purified by the opposition, the waters were crystal clear and it was known as The Celestial Falls, generating Devotion for Spirituality users.

When the ritual conducted by the Conclave failed and distorted all the landmarks, the Falls were left ruddy and murky until the last of its power was sacrificed years later to birth the Goddess Makali.
