Pristine Prairie
The Pristine Prairie is located north of the skat'ra plains. As the princesses establish more and more hills, the size of the prairie is shrinking continuously, but it will take centuries to claim the whole prairie. Its west and east borders meet with the oceans. Based on the information from calamor cartographers, its northern side ends with massive cliffs, suggesting that the prairie's north border is a mountain, but nobody confirmed that yet.
A handful of smaller and three more significant rivers flow from north to south, reinforcing the northern mountain hypothesis. The biggest river is the Krenson, located in the eastern part of the prairie.
Based on the information from treasure hunters, the weather is uniformly the same everywhere, making it the biggest savannah on the planet. However, there are rumors about strange weather phenomena when the weather can change in a blink of an eye, but nobody verified it yet, and so far, it is written off as fairy tales of drunken people.
The prairie is explored mainly through treasure hunters. Skat'ra rarely ventured far from their hills, and scholars conducted only a few scientific expeditions. Based on the information of the treasure hunters, the flora and fauna are more or less the same as other savannahs on other continents. But it is also full of wonderful and dangerous animals, beasts, plants, and a few monstrous beings.
The prairie is also the place where the tobzoshkuh swarms and hordes originate from. They leave huge holes where they dig themselves up, making the tunnels open invitations to riches untold. During the Rending uncountable number of ancient magics, technologies, and bones of gigantic monsters were unearthed. The Pristine Prairie is the best place to find these artifacts and relics. Treasure hunters playing safe can find items on the surface, but the daring adventurers use the tobzoshkuh tunnels to go deeper and test their luck with the dangers found within. These adventurers tell tall tales of even more frightening monsters and signs of some culture living below. Of course, only those who came back to tell these tales.
Nowadays, you rarely find an adventurer exploring new places just for fun. Mostly they are for fame and fortune
