Hello there everyone, Brandon here with a lore post for you to read. With your eyes. Today’s topic is the Outlands, an arid desert in the southern parts of Eiricksland that is equal parts beautiful and deadly.
The Outlands
The Outlands are a desert on the southern outskirts of the Free States of Acedonia and Helm Republic. Its combination of high heat, dangerous wildlife, and unstable layer of Old Earth ruins beneath the sand and rock make it a hazardous place to sustain a civilization.
That’s not to say that people don’t live in the Outlands, mind. Loosely-Organized groups like the Outlands Busters and the Rockraiders live out in the ruins, preying on people looking for the rarities within them.
Of course, human threats aren’t the only thing lurking in the dunes, low brush, and ruins of the Outlands. The source of the Rot, known as the Sea of Glass, is in the center of it. The terrain gets far more hostile and mountainous the closer you get to the epicenter, a massive structure of blackened fulgurite-esque glass.
Well, that closes out this lore post. If you want to see more posts like this, click Here, and to read the Fiction Primer, go Here. Thanks for reading, and see you in the next post. -Brandon
