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

A small, subterranean chamber carved from polished grave-stone in a remote settlement. Its purpose is to govern the populace through communion with the deceased. Work involves communing with the unquiet dead, interpreting their mournful pronouncements, and performing ritual sacrifices. You'd find Darakhul priests using their deathly aura to anchor and then shatter a spirit's form, and leaders planning a new ritual to acquire more power.

Appearance

The chamber is dimly lit by flickering spectral flames, with walls lined by polished gravestone slabs engraved with ancient epitaphs. The air is thick with a deathly aura, and faint whispers echo throughout the space.
