Free Realms

The lands of Arcania - homelands, bastions, and the territories shaped by two centuries of war.

"The world was not always divided. Once, before the Duskfall, all lands were one under Anias's light. Now we fight to reclaim what was lost-one homeland at a time."

  • General Kira Ironhand

Two centuries of war have reshaped Arcania's geography. What was once a unified continent blessed by divine presence is now a fractured realm, divided between the Free Lands under Erion's protection and the Corrupted Dominions under Alassa's shadow.

The Free Homelands

From these four homelands, every warrior makes their way to Valoryn, the command center from which the resistance operates:

The Flow of War

Homelands → Valoryn → The Five Dominions → Throne of Ruin

Every defender begins in their homeland, training in the traditions of their people. When ready, they journey to Valoryn to join Erion's forces. From there, the campaign pushes through the five corrupted dominions toward Alassa's palace-the fallen Eterna Citadel, now called the Throne of Ruin.

A Land Scarred by Titans

The geography of Arcania bears the marks of cosmic forces:

  • The Anguish Scars - Rifts where Titan energy still bleeds through
  • The Corruption Spread - Lands twisted by the Anguish Stone's influence
  • The First World Remnants - Ancient forests from Anias's dreaming, before she awoke
  • The Divine Echoes - Places where gods walked, still resonant with power

Note

The Free Lands represent roughly 30% of Arcania's original territory. The rest has fallen to Alassa's dominion-but the resistance grows stronger with each passing year.
