DreadlandsThe Dreadlands is a large area of land situated south of the Principality of the Dreadmarch. This area is a wastelands where nothing appears to grow well. Trees are warped and stunted, grass is yellowed and withered, and random storms of elemental forces and poisonous gases whirl around. Undead are present in large numbers, mainly because they are some of the few creatures that can stand the storms. Cartographers sent to the area have noticed a small but significant expansion of the area of the Dreadlands. In essence, it's now slowly growing. Markers set at it's edges show that it is growing at a rate of 50-100 yards per year. It is an unclaimed area as far as Kingdoms go, since it appears unable to be settled and invasion would be problematic at best. It is rumored that an ancient city sits crumbling at the center of the Dreadlands. In the year 603 ER, it was made known that prophecy has revealed that this area is to be the spawning ground for a great evil that will threaten all of Avalon. It was not long afterwards that it was discovered that Emeraldyne the dragon and her forces call the Dreadlands home. Due to the dangerous nature of these lands and the ever-changing landscape due to the storms, there are no known maps of the Dreadlands at this time. |
