Enter the Howling Lands, where the swollen red sun glares down with a sickly fury, and time itself crawls under its oppressive heat, where the only creatures to survive this blasted wasteland are nightmares forged in the crucible of unrelenting harshness. Day and night stretch endlessly, each bringing its unique horrors — searing heat by day, and deadly, unseen predators by night. Blind beasts hunt with senses sharper than sight, making the freezing darkness as dangerous as the searing days. Few have dared to Pierce the Veil, that vast, standing haboob that separates the relative safety of the WorldTeeth Mountains from the unknown perils of the Howling Lands. But for those brave enough to risk it, whispers of ancient civilizations with unimaginable power beckon. The ruins of technomancy and lost magics, relics of a time before lie hidden in the sands. Secrets that could shift the balance of power in Asuwa if they could only be found and understood. Your journey begins at Riverwynd where the adventurers who came before you have carved a map into a table in the Wayfarer’s Paradise. Each mark on the map is a testament to survival, a piece of knowledge earned in blood and sweat. Tradition dictates that if you survive, you add your discoveries to the map—so others may follow in your footsteps, or avoid your fate. Despite the warnings carved onto the planks of the table before you, the Howling Lands are calling, and power beyond any in Asuwa awaits those who are brave and brutal enough to seize it. Gather your courage, prepare your spells, sharpen your blades, and step into a world where every day is a battle against the land itself. Will you survive long enough to leave your mark?
