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 Whispering Piers are Shadow-Thread Port's elusive docks—shifting, camouflaged moorings and hidden jetties that appear in mist. Accessible by precise knowledge of currents and signals, they are the secret heart of Elven operations. You'll find hushed conversations, concealed blades, and swift, silent vessels. Information brokers exchange vital secrets here. Work involves running illicit cargo, trading dangerous whispers, forging documents, or arranging secret passage for desperate clients. You can find forbidden lore, rare poisons, volatile reagents, and individuals seeking anonymity. Its purpose: to facilitate covert exchange and secret departures, ensuring intelligence flows unseen, and identities remain fluid.

Appearance

Moorings and jetties appear and disappear in thick mist, with shadowy figures moving silently. Small, swift vessels are moored in hidden alcoves, and faint whispers carry over the water. The docks are lined with crates of forbidden lore, rare poisons, and volatile reagents, all under the cover of darkness and secrecy.
