The Riven Lands

I
Ithikari

The Riven Lands are a fractured realm born from a magical event, The Sundering which violently pulled people from countless realities into a bleeding scar across existence. Magic here is a vile, twisting curse, its power warping flesh and mind. Its inhabitants, xenophobic and without loyalty, cling to life amidst decaying lands, endless wars, and horrifying Gods that everyone worships in some form. Hope is a lie; only brutal struggle remains in this world drowned in cynicism and sheer cruelty.

Description

Shadow-Thread Port is Whispercove's elusive heart, a network of hidden coves and camouflaged passages where Elf's weave intricate webs of information and contraband. Its purpose is to control the flow of secrets and illicit goods. Individuals are held for their unique skills or have their wills subtly broken. Threats include beasts infiltrating hidden passages from surrounding wilderness, spectral guardians of specific caches reacting violently to disturbances, rival Elven kinbands engaging in escalating information warfare, pervasive paranoia causing internal betrayal, and violent sabotage of rival smuggling operations within city limits.

Appearance

Shadow-Thread Port appears as a series of shadowy docks and narrow, twisting alleys lined with concealed doorways and secret compartments, dimly lit by flickering lanterns and marked by cryptic symbols only known to insiders.
