Locations
Cities, ruins, roads, rivers and the places people avoid.
Caldmere
The capital of Varrow, seat of the deadlocked Regency Council, a grey stone city on the river Sull where the Empire's question waits unanswered.
Saverra
Saverra is the richest and oldest of the Tidebound League's city-states, seat of its charter-council, its great vaults and the Collegium of Ash.
The Glassmere
The twenty-mile waste of black glass in central Varrow where the Cathedral of the Hymns fell on the Sundering Night, forbidden and unmapped at its centre.
The Hask
The northern clanlands of birch forest, fjords and snow, whose people burn their dead, exile the Hollowed and keep the oldest Lantern-Warden houses.
The Stair of Ilm
A vast stone stair on the Drowned Coast that descends from the cliffs into the sea, older than drowned Ilm itself; no one living knows where it ends.
Varrow
The heartland of the fallen Sundered Empire: a land of stone towns, failing roads and a deadlocked Regency, ruled from Caldmere until the Crown returns.
