Mournland

Once, Cyre shone more brightly than any of its sibling nations in the kingdom of Galifar. It was the center of the kingdom’s wealth, a monument to its artistic and arcane achievements, and the site of great centers of learning where preeminent masters of magic, architecture, and artifice taught at the forefront of their craft. It was also the home of House Cannith and its massive foundries: some of them built on mountains or in mountains, some gracefully spanning canyons, and others erected in vast labyrinths deep underground.   Today, this region is a festering wound across Khorvaire . A wall of dead-grey mist surrounds a land twisted by magic into strange and terrible shapes. Beyond the mists lies a land that will not heal. The land is blasted and strangely transformed. In some places the ground has fused into jagged glass. In others, it is cracked and burned. Broken bodies of soldiers from various sides litter the landscape — soldiers whose dead bodies refuse to decompose. The Mournland is a vast open grave.   In the Mournland, the wounds of war never heal, vile magical effects linger, and monsters mutate into even more foul and horrible creatures. Arcane effects continue to rain upon the land, magical storms that never dissipate. Stories speak of living spells — war magic that has taken physical form, sentient fireballs and vile cloudkills that endlessly search for new victims. Angry ghosts continue to fight their final battles. The only thing that’s predictable about the Mournland is that nothing is predictable; any sort of monster or horror could be found within its borders. Cyre was once called the Jewel of Gailar. Now it is the Mournland.   Adventuring in the Mournland is especially difficult as all who enter are under the conditon of Shattered.
