Lantern Rite Crossing
Lantern Rite Crossing is a narrow causeway of packed earth and stone edging through a pair of dark marsh pools, its borders marked by low rock lines and solemn stone lantern pedestals.
Volatile Herb Garden
Volatile Herb Garden is a luminous wetland patchwork—raised peat beds boxed in timber frames and overflowing with bright, bioluminescent blooms that burn like embers against the dark water.
Stormwatch Rise
Stormwatch Rise is a lone hump of higher ground in an expanse of marsh—an exposed peat mound crowned with wet grass and ringed by wind-bent reeds that hiss and bow under the weight of steady rain.
Sunken Vision Pool
Sunken Vision Pool is a mirror-still bog hollow where the water lies unnaturally calm.
