The Vesania Expanse

In the middle of the Bel Nari, the Vesania expanse stretches almost the whole continent's length but doesn't quite touch the shores. You may wonder why such a large section of land remains untouched. But anyone from the neighboring kingdoms would tell you that if you stay in the expanse for too long, the madness of the gods will take over and you'll never be seen again. Whether or not that's true is anyone's guess. Well, except for maybe the Amentia teams, but they never speak of their expeditions into the expanse. All anyone knows is that the expanse is always changing, and it's never the same twice.

Healing herbs, rare ores, wood, and animals to hunt are all typical resources one could find in the expanse.

It has also been said that there is something older than the gods and Amentia created the Vesania to protect it. One rumor even says that it’s where he first came through the veil and his very touch rendered the land to madness. All the rumors lead to him becoming the creator of it and none seem to question it.
