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

The cemetery of Whispercove is a secluded, cavernous cove where the dead are left to be forgotten. The cove is filled with a fine, dark silt, perpetually wet with brackish water. The bodies of those who knew too much, those who betrayed the kin-leaders, and those who were no longer useful, are all cast into this watery abyss. The purpose of this cemetery is a grim, two-fold utility. The first is to serve as a library of secrets, where the lies of the dead are absorbed by the silt and can be retrieved by the Elven kin-leaders. The second is to serve as a grim warning to all who would dare to cross them, a constant reminder of the price of betrayal. The Silent Silt is a place where secrets are the only true currency, and the dead are a new form of information to be acquired and used.

Appearance

The cove is shrouded in mist, with dark, wet silt covering the ground and water pooling in shallow areas. Faint whispers seem to emanate from the silt, carrying the secrets of the dead. Jagged rocks frame the entrance, and eerie silence pervades the air.
