The Falar Ocean first appears in Deadhouse Gates as a vast, open expanse beyond the island seas, serving as the maritime frontier that separates the Seven Cities from the distant Falar archipelago. Across the series it evolves from a mere geographic backdrop into a strategic corridor for naval campaigns, refugee flotillas, and the movement of gods and armies. Its waters become the stage for pivotal naval confrontations and the silent passage of ancient powers, underscoring the ocean’s role as both barrier and bridge in the unfolding conflicts of the Malazan world.
