Wald of the Age of Parted Shadow is generally mapped but largely unexplored, at least concretely. There are few major
cities, and the scattered towns and villages come and go without warning. A general route spanning from east to west
exists, but it is especially rough and vague on the western half of the island. The southern peninsula is even less

* **Coldhill**
* **Gale**
* **Hydra Pass**, aka the Gateway to the West, aka the End of Civilization (to those better off in the east) --- a major

civilization due to its remoteness and adjacency to Blackmarsh.
* **Onyx** --- the Warlord's kingdom originated in Onyx, his most significant fortress which also serves as his castle
and seat of power. Below it is an elaborate system drawing water from an underground lake, and Onyx is said to drill

* **Prism**
