Níngoth is a reverse flowing whirlpool at the heart of the Azrinn'nûr islands. It is the last exit point for those traveling the Sea Tunnel.
Níngoth was named by the sea elves that settled in this area after the Creation War. In that war these sea elves served under general Sathel.
For a time in the Second Epoch, the Sea Tunnel flowed opposite of what it does today. In 1078, a Vorangrith merchant convoy was caught in a tropical storm near the Rings of Azrinn. Half of the convoy was lost, drawn into Níngoth and then taken along the Sea Tunnel. They ended up in Enkii Jusk, making a new home at the ancient ruin Tyk-Culten.
