WORLD OF THE WOUND
Orun stands on the pale Orush plateau, where salt roads meet towers built for looking upward. From here the sky is not a distant roof but a subject of careful observation, recorded mark by mark.
Orun stands within a salt country where the sky is studied as carefully as the land. The towers, their measurers and the plateau flora appear in the published world and its companion notes.
Orun stands on the pale Orush plateau, where salt roads meet towers built for looking upward. From here the sky is not a distant roof but a subject of careful observation, recorded mark by mark.
The sky measurers and their written observations give Orush a particular place in the known world. Caravans and well scribes connect the tower city to the roads below. The mystery of the Wound is part of what they study, not a conclusion the website should pretend to settle.
Pale salt ground, dry highlands and narrow caravan tracks define the plateau. Wind gathers dust around rock steps; a tower or well can become the only landmark across long exposed distances. The sky appears unusually clear above the dry stone.
Caravan keepers, astronomer-scribes and tower assistants preserve measurements as carefully as trade routes. Knowledge is labour here: counting, comparing, copying and caring for the instruments by which the sky is read.
Sparse grasses and dry-ground plants survive along roads and protected hollows. The Orush material also describes highland and salt-adapted life, but the dossier avoids assigning unconfirmed species to precise settlements.
Geography and history follow the approved novel and MYRHA compendium. Game-world concept material remains explicitly marked in linked entries.
