The Ashwari Expanse

Introduction

The Ashwari Expanse is a massive desert on the southernmost continent of the Fractured Lands. Before the land fractured, this harsh desert was once the home of Senitua, a half-dragon priestess who ruled her people in the name of Diametrites.

The desert stretches from the eastern coastal city of Kaltema, across the nothern half of the continent, before reaching a small mountain range far to the west.

Kaltema

Kaltema is a city unlike most in the Fractured Lands. Built of ancient sandstone and limestone, the city thrives, but is situated at the eastern edge of the stifling Ashwari Expanse. As a coastal city it is shockingly hot and humid, leading the inhabitants to cover themselves head to toe in layers of a locally made cloth wrapping meant to breath but still protect from the sun.

This near-mandatory dress code has created a culture of inclusion not usually found in most cities. Nearly anyone can become invisible, or at least much harder to identify, without standing out too much in Kaltema.

The Pyramid of Senitua

After some time spent searching the Ashwari Expanse, the party has finally located the Pyramid of Senitua. The huge bulk of the pyramid is buried under the sands, but the topmost point and an apparent entrance have been uncovered. After exploring the pyramid, it became clear that Senitua was not entombed inside. Instead, the fallen godling Diametrites was trapped with his hoard with his heart ripped out of his chest. Diametrites was defeated and destroyed, taking most of his hoard with him. The fate of Senitua is unknown.
