Plains and Wilds

The Plains and Wilds of Elysoria stretch vast and varied across the continent, forming the living skin between mountain, forest, and sea. These are the lands without walls—windswept steppes, fertile heartlands, sun-bleached flats, storm-battered coasts, and untamed moors—each shaped not by the hand of kings or the rise of cities, but by time, weather, and the quiet persistence of life.   Some, like the Riverhold Heartlands or the Galen Grasslands, pulse with human activity and cultivation, the breadbasket regions of the realm. Others, such as the Barrenstride Plains, Heatherhaven Moors, or Forgotten Grasslands, remain untamed—either too distant, too harsh, or simply too vast for the reach of roads and kingdoms.   In these regions, wild creatures flourish, ancient paths fade into wind and soil, and quiet myths take root like deep grasses. They are home to both prosperity and peril, to open skies and unseen watchers. Traders cross them. Hunters revere them. Poets remember them.
