Darknook
“As the steam rises up from field and forest and the smell of brimstone fills the air, one cannot help but feel as if in another world.”
Auciet Pycey, cartographer
Darknook is built on the edge of the forest surrounding the Murky Lagoon. It is also built on an area of volcanic activity. There are numerous steam bores and fissures around which the locals tap for warmth and energy. It has recently been the site of gruesome necromantic cult activity.
