Stone. . .

The backbone of the world, and yet, its strength will fail time after time. This is seen easily enough in the ruins of civilizations that dot the distant horizons; for the history of the realm remembers truth. It was once believed that a barrier of stone would keep the darkness at bay . . . that safety was merely created from mortar and gray brick. We know differently now. Destruction is not always found on the other side of a locked door. Behind these walls of immense proportion, the city streets give life to all manner of creatures. In a city built to withstand the savage onslaught of the feral beasts, it may just be that demise is ever more at hand within this sanctuary than without. For in Desidimornia, nothing is ever quite what it seems.

Cityscape

Angkor

Rising from the greenery of the vast mountain folds, are stone bridges and temples that give tribute to an ancient way of life. But here, beauty is a dangerous thing and the old ways demand live sacrifices to keep the peace. Follow the dappled forest trails from deep within the jungle to flower meadows, cities built within mountainside caves, and to the shore where the fishermen are as cold and hard as the sea.

Past Rulers of Note:

Pompeii

In the volcanic city, the populated city streets often shiver and shake with the ominous rumbling of the distant eruptions. Within, find wealth and poverty, glamour and steampunk, aerodynamic vessels and beasts of burden. Newcomers may become entranced, but those born here know all too well of the shadows that stalk streets that never see true light of day in this metropolis built in the bowels of the ground.

Atlantis

Beneath the waves of the waterways and canals of desidimornia lies a district of surreal desire and danger. Within the glass tunnels that enter and create a maze beneath the docks above, gills are a common feature and handsome kelpies have made even the wisest of maidens disappear forever. Come if you must, but dare not stay long, the element of water is only serene until the storm arrives.
