The Glass-Spire Badlands stretch across elevated black plateaus where lightning turns sand into glittering blades and every storm seems to sharpen the horizon. House Ayrthiarch maintains a disciplined network of martial academies, spellblade courts, tactical colleges, and minimalist monasteries. Students cross the region seeking mastery, while merchants sell stormglass arms and foreign powers court its instructors. Beneath the charged earth, older ruins preserve doctrines that could reshape Draknaar's balance of power.
