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

Integrated into the very foundations of Malcoria, these series of deep, open pits are lined with pulsating, grafted flesh and filled with a thick, viscous fluid. These "Visceral Conduit Pits" are central to the dictator's purpose: they constantly "breed and control corrupted life," creating new forms of twisted beings. However, the threat is inherent—the constant risk of the "blight they cultivate becoming uncontrollable," spilling out into the area as widespread disease, or birthing "creations turning rogue" and inflicting havoc.

Appearance

The pits are surrounded by dark, organic structures that pulse rhythmically, with veins of grafted flesh weaving through stone and metal. The air is thick with a sickly sweet odor, and the viscous fluid within the pits glows faintly with an eerie light.
