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 public well of Veilwatch is a serene, beautiful, and utterly horrifying place. It is a smooth, polished marble basin that holds a perpetually clear and still water. However, the water's surface reflects not the user's face, but the face of a different, forgotten person—a grim reminder of the Kitsune's mastery of identity theft. The purpose of this well is a grim form of social control and espionage, where the populace drinks from it to gain a glimpse into the minds of others, but at the cost of their own memories. The water is a grim symbol of Veilwatch's insidious deceptions and its complete disregard for personal identity.

Appearance

The well is made of smooth, gleaming white marble, perfectly round and polished to a mirror finish. The water inside is unnaturally still and clear, reflecting eerie, unfamiliar faces that shift with each observer. The area around the well is quiet, with an unsettling aura of secrecy and dread.
