The Gushing Mounds
A voluptuous landscape that stands as a reminder of what raw, unbridled magic can do. Born from the climactic release of a forbidden magic in an era erased by the court historians, this region's geysers are known for its eruptions that contain magic-rich fluid highly prized for its healing ability. However, the forbidden magic from long ago still courses through beneath the surface, deep within the crevices and caverns, causing quivering, unstable grounds and a constantly changing landscape. The experienced adventurer knows that when the deep, rhythmic vibrations grow the strongest are when the geysers erupt the strongest, and even though many lose themselves to the moist, vibrating quicksand, the reward of the magical geysers draws plenty to seek their fortune in the Gushing Mounds.
The Throbbing Thicket Woods
A special, magical forest made up entirely of a thick, hard heartwood tree that all pulsates together in unison with a magical glow. They're called heartwood because of the sprawling, ancient root system beneath the forest that's absorbed all of the love, blood, and life that's fell into the soil over thousands of years, imbuing it with a raw, primal magic found nowhere else in the world. Though there are many trunks, some small, some towering over the Hazuminis at hundreds of feet tall, they are all technically the same tree, born from roots planted in an age long forgotten to history.
