The Lost Cold: The Location
The Lost Cold is an area located between the Tribes of Vorodia and the Alenian Empire. Although this area might seem small, it isn’t. The landmass has a strong Primal Magic current that travels through it but ends at the Alenian and Vorodian borders.
Adventurers who travel there almost always end up with a significant case of frostbite, or they're dead. It takes a special kind of race or creature to live in this area, it can drop to -2000 degrees overnight, and the snow is always 64 feet at its minimum.
You will still find life here, but life here has been developing since the dawn of the planet. Vorodia views the land as sacred, while the Alenian Empire views it as being protected.
The Lost Cold goes undiscovered mainly because of how cold it gets. You can find another patch of this cold between the Sultanate of Kocadirya and the Kingdom of Amarash. It is believed that these two locations are the same.
No one owns the Lost Cold; the races that live there do not venture out to speak with the other nations. No one nation can own the land either, and it is protected.

The Lost Cold is a frozen wasteland with snow for miles around. The water here has frozen over and takes a special set of tools to crack open. The races that survive here have special tools or have evolved to crack open the thick ice and get water.
Nothing about this area makes it livable to outsiders. It gets so cold that most species would die in minutes; others would freeze in place and be devoured by the wildlife.
When night falls, the air gets frigid, and it becomes hard to breathe. The Lost Cold is covered in frozen mountains and dozens of coats of snow. Inside the snow, you will find plants; each planet will try and come out for only a few moments of sun before retreating into the snow.
The borders of the Lost Cold are the only spots where you will find any warmth. The borders are also less rigid, but the deeper you go, the more mountains you will find. Some mountains seem to climb as high as the sky. The hills are dense, and climbing them is an extreme workout.
Ecosystem
The ecosystem is rich in its way. The animals you find here have adapted to live in this harsh environment.
Some animals can be found living on top of the snow. They build dens out of the snowbanks, and others have become the shelter they wanted to seek. Some animals have thick coats of fur, and others live deep within the frozen waters.
Herbivores can still be found here! Flowers often poke out of the snow to get the sun, and animals take that chance to grab them and eat them. The ecosystem here is very diverse; insects can be found here as well; they’re large and build thick snow dens.
Ecosystem Cycles
There are no seasons here. It constantly snows; the sun shining makes no difference to the intense cold covering these lands.
Localized Phenomena
When you look into the sky around dusk, you can see stray magic floating through the air: This magic is a mix of purples, blues, and even reds. This magic stream will carry over the ocean and can be seen for a few miles, but this is where it all starts.
People think this stream of magic is coming from the Ancient Ones. Others believe this is the magic leaving the dead. Wherever it comes from, it is strong and cannot be harnassed.
Fauna & Flora
The planets and animals have all adapted to live in this land. Plants often live under the snow unless they're large enough to face the sun at all times. Most plants are hostile and will attack when approached.
The animals are the same; even herbivores will attack if approached. The plants and animals here are violent because they have to be; even the cutest, especially thing, will rip you to shreds.
Natural Resources
The natural resources have not been discovered.
History
The Lost Cold has always been a place that has been left alone. Adventures have tried to go there, but most turn back; otherwise, they would face a miserable death.
The Lost Cold has always been a place of mystery; world leaders want to explore the land but will not send anyone inside. Especially since they will have to go through two nations and travel the seas to get there.
