Sengejia Hills

The rugged, nearly trackless foothills of the Impossible Peaks are home to the Senge clans, the last descendants of the region’s original inhabitants who fled here in the face of Xha’en aggression. While the Senge are not a hostile or warlike people, they remain insular and distrustful of outsiders, which is not entirely unreasonable given their tragic history. The hills are a rough place, and the Senge scratch out a bare living through subsistence farming, herding, and occasional trade with the Xha’en. The hills themselves are covered in hardy grasses and occasional stands of white oak and smoke trees. The broad Pantai River is the largest waterway in the region and dotted with many small Senge settlements. Most other rivers are small, and many are seasonal. Wildlife is similarly hardy, with a few large predators such as dire wolves and hyenas, smaller predators such as foxes and coyotes, and herd animals such as deer, vicuna, and an especially fleet species of antelope called the kuailu. The region is also home to hill giant and gnoll tribes and is sometimes ravaged by ratfolk from the caverns beneath the Impossible Peaks. The Senge themselves fear to stray too far from home at night, as stories of lycanthropes and roaming ghosts and revenants are common.
