The Vale and the outer lands
The world spans a 720 m square. The central Vale contains the homestead, forest and frontier; four outer regions blend into it, with a mountain ridge around the edge. Terrain and biome layout are fixed, while seeded nature placement varies between worlds.
The homestead is your base for crafting, storage and building. Follow paths into the forest, find places and lore, prepare for the northern frontier, and eventually reach the Forgotten Courtyard and Beacon. Barrows lead into underground crypts with their own dangers.
The map begins obscured. Exploration reveals nearby terrain; discovered places and objectives help you navigate. Shared worlds synchronize exploration.
