Alias: The Unsolvable Problem
Location: Eastern Thazvaar (interior)
Inland Thazvaar is the immense, ungovernable heart of the eastern continent—an eighth of Geba’s landmass (far more if excluding the super-massive Uncharted Continent)—fractured into deserts, jungles, and mountain ranges that render full control impossible. Once the chaotic core of the Thazvaari Dominion, it was riddled with criminal warlord enclaves the Dominion itself could not suppress. After conquest, the Geban Empire inherited these conflicts under Imperators like Veris’Kal Therak and Kanesh’Tar Zeren, but the region’s scale and terrain made pacification futile. Relays decay, airships vanish, and syndicates dominate through constant conflict over territory, energy sources, and trade routes. Even the Church of the Infinite Maw, with all its wealth and zeal, declared Inland Thazvaar a waste of time—only sending small armed teams to acquire artifacts and information related to the Maw, He Who Allows, the Velcrith, or the Seraveth, with no plans to settle anything beyond temporary relay posts. It contains several ancient mega-relays built during the Era of Absolute Expansion, though many remain dormant. Prince Ashan’Raeth Vareth’s expedition faced violence and Vessel phenomena here. Through stagnation, Fracture, and Maw expansions, Inland Thazvaar remains the Empire’s enduring frontier of disorder.
