The Borderlands stretch across a broad belt of rolling hills, wooded valleys, moors, and old military roads between stronger neighboring realms. Villages cluster around mines, bridges, shrines, and defensible passes, while isolated clans occupy the rougher uplands. Magic is common in daily life, but ancient war scars make it unpredictable. The region supports trade, exploration, diplomacy, and conflict without requiring a single dominant settlement or ruler.

Cultures
