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 Corpse-Lens Repository is a unique, unsettling building in Reliquary Reach, its dark stone walls lined with countless niches holding preserved eyes or other sensory organs. Its unique function is to serve as a chilling archive where Darakhul extract and preserve the sensory experiences of the dead. One might be brought here, having witnessed something significant, or awaken having undergone a "viewing." Here, Darakhul meticulously use these organs to "witness" past events, their own eyes taking on the glazed, unseeing look of the dead, piecing horrifying narratives from fractured visions. Work involves retrieving specific preserved organs from dangerous locations, assisting in "viewing" rituals, or guarding the gruesome collection from outsiders seeking morbid insights.

Appearance

Dark stone walls lined with countless niches holding preserved eyes and sensory organs, dimly lit with eerie, flickering sconces casting long shadows.
