The Polov Heights is raised area in Arafel within the Field of Merrilor, about three miles long by one and a half miles wide. Immediately to the west lies the river Morra and half a mile to the south are bogs. During the Battle of Merrilor it was a strategically important area, initially held by the forces of the Light and given up to Demandred and the forces of the Shadow when they arrived through a gateway. Several important events of the battle took place on the Heights, such as Demandred and Lan's fight and Taim and Egwene's battle, which ended in the death of both of them (AMoL, Ch. 37).
