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 Veiled Echoes is a mist-shrouded, disorienting tavern in Mire-Whisper City, where the air itself seems to shift and distort. Elf illusionists and their devotees gather amidst confusing reflections. It functions as a testing ground for new illusions and mental conditioning techniques, often on unsuspecting patrons. Jobs involve acting as "perception guides" for treacherous routes or participating in psychic duels for entertainment. Services include acquiring illusory disguises or hiring mental assassins who break minds with altered realities. Their "famous" drink is "Mire Bloom Brew," a hallucinogenic concoction that induces vivid, often disturbing, visions of alternate realities.

Appearance

The tavern is enveloped in a thick, swirling mist that distorts vision, with walls lined by mirrors reflecting warped images. Dim, flickering lights and ethereal whispers create an unsettling, dreamlike atmosphere.
