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

Located within a sealed-off, bio-luminescent wing of the main temple-complex, this "academy" is where Vesperia's Tiefling priesthood pursues ultimate power through forbidden knowledge. Apprentices undergo rigorous training in "dark rituals," "arcane experimentation," and the "grotesque transformations" of living subjects. It’s where they learn to interpret the "will of unseen entities" and embrace the madness required to attract and harness fiendish entities.

Appearance

The wing glows with eerie blue and green bioluminescent fungi, with twisted, arcane symbols etched into the walls. Laboratories and ritual chambers are filled with strange apparatuses and cages holding transformed subjects.
