The Ashlands

Located in the southern middle of the continent, the Ashlands is a region full of canyons, volcanoes, trenches and hills. The Astomi, the native population say that in the Ashlands it "rains sulfur and snows ash" due to the many volcanoes that can be found here. Once the Ashlands was a green and highly fertile land, situated on top of the entrance to the underworld. One of Steynarrs grandest forges could also be found here, but after the death of Coitess her children burned it to the unrecognizable. When the dust had settled and the fires had died, the new children of Morden and Coitess came to settle the land and rebuilt it in their own image. After the arrival of the humans on the continent, a splinter group chose to travel west from the Greenfields and through the Ashlands. When they arrived they had to wade through the Sea of ashes and when they emerged on the other side, the ash had merged with their skin, making it perpetually dark. These humans would eventually come to settle in the Scar and be known as the Scari.
