As for the northern location? Garr's two halves were buried in secure, warded locations. Unfortunately, the southern location was too far south, south of 80S latitude. The other gods figured the climate would make it inaccessible, but they forgot that Garr's powers were tied to cold to so degree. Over time, Garr's influence (assisted by Ertoslator) changed the Ice Demons from bog-standard goblins to creatures which could survive arctic winter conditions. The Ice Demons have access to the tomb, but might not have removed the remains yet--the tomb wards imprison the half of Garr, but they also shield and protect it. The northern tomb is somewhere on the lower slopes of the north side of the Kivirian(sp?) Mountains, north of the city of Tanat. That tomb actually lies in jungle, and the half of Garr interred there is much, much weaker than the southern half due to the hot, humid climate. There also aren't any worshippers in the area, because when the Mir suppressed the Hand of Garr cult in the north, while they didn't kill all the cultists, they did manage to kill all the cultists who knew the exact location of the tomb. More specifically, they managed to wipe out all the northern goblins.
