Assailant -- Year 226
QOTY
"But the dream, the echo, slips from him as quickly as he had found it and as consciousness comes to him (a slap and not the gentle waves of oceanic tides), it dissolves entirely. His muscles relax as the cold claims him again, as the numbness sets in, and when his grey eyes open, there’s nothing but the faint after burn of a dream often trod and never remembered." --Brigade, written by Laura

The Jungle
The heat hits first, a solid wall of hot, sticky air. The trees hit second. Massive, impossible trees that grow nearly on top of one another, strung with vines. The ground is littered with underbrush, and it takes careful and practiced steps to navigate the terrain here. The spirit of the Jungle can be seen flickering through the trees, often in the form of a jaguar. Near the center of the kingdom, the trees clear. The Sisters gather here, and a large river runs through the clearing. The Sisters hold initiations here and swear themselves to the Sisterhood. In doing so, they are granted tattoos that mark them for life. Those who betray the Jungle will find their tattoo replaced with a red X.
The Tundra
A wall of ice climbs into the sky around the border of this kingdom. There is one entrance, making it nearly impossible to sneak into the Tundra unnoticed. In the winter, the kingdom is buried beneath snow. In the warmer months, the land is dotted with small shrubs and grasses. An old ruin lies in the barren land, with a cave at the center. Here, the Brothers face their demons and emerge as a member of the brotherhood, marked by a personal scar from their endeavor.
The Falls
The kingdom looks like a fairytale. Small forests dot the landscape, creating some natural borders from the outside world. The kingdom is mainly rolling hills and flat grassland. A river winds its way through the land, leading to an immense cliff and spectacular waterfall in the center of the kingdom. These waters have healing properties, and can be used by any loyal member of the Falls.
The Deserts
Looming red rocks and saguaro slowly give way to dry, cracked earth, and then rolling sand dunes. In the center of the kingdom stands a massive oak tree, surrounded by tough grass and sparse bushes and a large oasis. Further in is a sparkling, crystal clear pool which houses the Spirit of the Deserts, who protects the residents of the Deserts and may even grant wishes to the worthy.
The Valley
As you approach the Valley, tall mountains frame the path into the land. A wolf pack patrols the border of this kingdom, and does not take kindly to those that mean the Valley harm. The ground here is rocky, dotted with grass and trees. The vegetation grows thicker in places, forming pockets of forest twined with vines. In the center of the kingdom, in the heart of the Valley, stands a meadow where the citizens of the Valley gather.
