    More magically, maybe the mountains are low enough to let plenty of water over, but some phenomenon causes the clouds to precipitate over the Caged Sea, leaving the lands to its east in the rain shadow not of the mountains, but of the thirsty Caged Sea.

    Mapsburgh's advice is spot on with the research I've done. On Earth, deserts typically occur on the west side of continents (particularly west of the first mountain range that occurs inland from the west coast) between 0-30 degrees. A quick spin around google maps drives that point home.
