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 Queen's Silent Spire rises precariously from the heart of Echoes of Entrapment, a colossal, chitinous structure woven from hardened silk and petrified forest growth. This is the secluded, inner sanctum of the Still-Hunter Matriarch Queen, and the nexus of the Council's vast, unseen information network. Its function is to coordinate all surveillance, deception, and manipulation efforts across the realm. Threats include internal power struggles within the rigid matriarchy, with rival kin-leaders subtly undermined or eliminated through intricate, silent plots and acts of misdirection, ensuring constant vigilance even among their own kind.

Appearance

The spire rises precariously with a dark, glossy surface of interwoven silk and petrified wood, emitting an eerie silence. Its architecture is both organic and alien, with twisting, sharp angles and hidden chambers filled with shadowy figures and intricate webs of communication.
