The Gash

The gash is a place on Gry where the inside contents of the world seem to spill out. Magma floats daintily along in the air, even out of the atmosphere, before returning to the core in a repeated motion, very akin to a lava lamp. Pieces of rubble and land in and nearby seem to do the same, in a constant, slow state of moving. As to what caused The Gash, nobody knows. Some theorize that a meteorite slammed into the ground and tore it asunder, while others think it's all due to the work of a god or goddess, carefully playing with the solids and liquids, as if testing their skill to one day clear life off the planet. Whatever it may be, is unknown even to the best of diviners.

Geography

The Gash is quite simply, a hole in the world, located right on a shore of the continent Killangird. Water there has all but evaporated as solid chunks of the sea floor, ground, and other rocks have been vaulted and are now in a weird equilibrium of floating to the edge of the atmosphere, only to be tugged back down to underneath into the hole, and back up again. Along with the rocks seems to be magma that surprisingly hasn't cooled yet, following the same pattern the rocks do. Nobody has been able to touch or inspect it too closely, as those that get their body close end up disappearing completely, and if any somehow manage to come back, they return with horrid wounds and amnesia. Any divination harbors the spell-slinger fierce psychotic damage.

Fauna & Flora

No known flora or fauna reside here due to the risk, nor have there been any sightings yet.

Tourism

Despite being a very deadly place, there has been quite a bunch of tourism to this place. The Sao , an organization of united countries, have claimed territory here, and have managed to make a good barrier for tourists to view The Gash from a safe distance. There are many hotels and monasteries around to hold people whether they come for the view or for religious and magical purposes. There is also the Sao House  , a building known to hold meetings about the safety of others and how some things should be run.
