The Ki is a nation-sized imperial province stretching across hundreds of miles of temperate grassland, fertile river basins, and contested frontier steppe. Its founders borrowed the name from a distant homeland, where it once referred to wooded highlands rather than open plains. Fortified roads connect farms, horse stations, market towns, and military camps. High magic is common in public defenses, agriculture, and warfare, but old battlefield enchantments remain dangerous beneath the soil.
