Wandering Hills

Like the Empyreal Archecedars in the north, the Wandering Hills split southern Ezkaphecia between a populous coastal plain and a resource-rich frontier. Outwardly mundane, the hills are heavily forested in the north and gradually fade to arid badlands that continue into Dagon-Sur. Those who travel through the hills soon learn, however, that they are not ordinary. Owing to a magical wound time moves inconsistently in them, sometimes slower and sometimes faster, sometimes by a little and sometimes by a lot. These effects are not predictable either by path taken and themselves shift over time. For this reason they are sometimes called the “missing hills,” with travelers or hunters sometimes disappearing for days or weeks, only to return claiming only a few hours have passed. Others never return, their families hoping the hills will one day return them same as the day they left.

Those that live near the hills also speak of another meaning to the name - that the hills themselves have moved over the centuries since the Great War. Legends say the hills were once part of the Surjcheon Escarpment but have separated and wandered slowly towards the coast, inch by inch. They add that this is not an unguided or meaningless process, though the ultimate goal and who directs it is a source of much speculation.
