You don’t know that much about the Badlands. You know just that they are a vast, barbaric steppe region, dotted by occasional stunted groves and bordered eastwards by a gaunt woodland. The Badlands are inhabited by superstitious folk that don’t recognize any authority from external lands, including Baron Tyntern. The people of these lands dwell in sparse villages, apart from the Kugic nomads who wander this land hunting and occasionally trading their exceptional horses. Ignorance, suspicion and cruelty reign here, just as if a dark blight had been cast upon the land. For sure, crossing the Badlands will be a harsh trek for you.
It is mid-day and the path splits in three: one road goes straight north, another one goes west and the last one goes east.
In the center of this broad crossroad there is a tall wooden obelisk, decorated with antic and scorning faces of demons and humans alike. It’s very windy here, and small whirls of dust chase each other relentlessly.
