Forest
Viridian Hollow
An ancient forest-city woven around roots large enough to hold roads, shrines, and whole districts.
Ruins
Blackbriar Crown
The ruined royal basin where dead towers and thorn fortresses surround the buried throne.
Wilderness
Frostmere Verge
A cold northern frontier of pine valleys, moonlit lakes, and abandoned watch keeps.
World state
Settlement health
Food, safety, leadership, and corruption can change between chapters and after major decisions.
Spirit pressure
Some areas become calmer or more hostile based on rituals, broken promises, and nearby boss states.
Seasonal paths
Flooded roads, frozen lakes, fungal blooms, and migrating creatures open new routes and risks.
