The Emberwild Frontier spans more than six hundred miles of temperate valleys, blackglass deserts, ash forests, and volcanic highlands. It is a sparsely settled land where roads cross ancient lava, rivers cut through basalt, and settlements cling to fertile pockets. Mythic magic leaks from buried ruins and celestial scars, making every mine, shrine, and crater a potential source of fortune or catastrophe. No single power rules the region completely.
