The Frozen
Waste
The
Frozen Waste of the East is a cold, lifeless realm of rocks and ice, of
freezing winds and endless swirling snow. It is basically featureless,
and the entire eastern half of it is covered with an enormous glacier.
There are tall frozen mountains to the south, and icebergs that break
off of the great sheet of ice in the far north, where the Waste borders
on the Great Lake. A few scattered Wolves are known to wander the waste,
silent and stealthy, making travel dangerous in this land, but the Waste
is otherwise empty, cold, and desolate. The Nameless One rules this corner
of the Lands from his Ice Caves in the far
east, and his presence can be felt in the almost overbearing silence and
stillness of this area. Nothing moves, nothing grows, and nothing changes
in the Waste. It is a dead zone, as the Nameless One would have our entire
world become, should he succeed in his plan. No one travels willingly
to the Waste, and those who do often do not return, as the Nameless One
guards his secrets jealously, and cares little for the lives of individuals.
The entire Waste is a place best avoided by those who value their life
and happiness.
