The Wasteland...
To the Southwest of the Alliance lands, a land far away from the City of Valora is known as The Wasteland. It was always not called with that name.
When the Age of Magic started, it was a lush region where many species of monsters existed and even many rare herbs that existed nowhere else.
Humans and monsters always fought for control over the region, but the war for the dominion was stopped by a third party, something called a meteor, actually meteors, a bunch of them that fell from the sky, devastating everything around.
Nothing in the area survived. Everything turned into ash, whether it was a monster, a human or a plant, nothing mattered. Only ash remained after the event.
It happened over a century ago, and since then it has been called The Wasteland, as life disappeared from the area, and even growing anything took a lot of time in the area.
