Thirteen Lands

十三の陸

The Thirteen Lands are an archipelago of Isles in the Endless Ocean. Forged five centuries ago by the Confluence of Isles, this great landmass is home to a wide variety of human cultures and civilizations. It is the birthplace of the five factions sending Pathfinders to explore the New World.

The Confluence

The Thirteen Lands were formed five centuries ago, when a terrible storm sent thirteen Isles on a collision course towards each other. By sheer happenstance, they were welded together by interlocking rocks and vines, becoming one interwoven landmass. This unprecedented event, called the Confluence of Isles, was a time of both terrible upheaval and explosive cultural exchange.

The Confluence effectively remade human societies in the Thirteen Lands. The old world was destroyed by climate change, famine, and war. From the ruins, warlords created new kingdoms: Domenica, Almoria, Panethria, Matomai. These would eventually become the cultural bedrock of the modern world.
