The Great Desolation

The Great Desolation
The Great Desolation is a large and mostly uncharted territory of The Empire, expanding hundreds of leagues in diameter it carves the continent of Vandimion in two and claims the life of those brave or stupid enough to attempt and adventure across it.

Legends are tied to the Desolation of its origins and history, and what might reside at the heart of it - cities of gold, great oases and riches beyond imagining. However, the truth remains the same - no one living knows the secrets of the wasteland. It has existed since before records were kept, perhaps since the behemoths themselves wandered it.

Some legends are true however, of the monsters that lurk in the sand dunes and rocky, lifeless hills of the wasteland. Monsters as large as ships, snakes the size of city walls and beasts so large you would tremble at the mere sight. These beings guard the secret of the wasteland, and the passage across. If you seek to venture to the other side, you travel by ship or not at all.
