In a time long past, the Southern Provinces stood as a flourishing realm, a tapestry of fertility and lush greenery that once bestowed upon the Old Kingdom the bounty of its lands.

Embraced by the dwarven kingdom of the Ironhelm Mountains, flanked by the opulent realms of Mythos to the south and the unending steppe stretching eastward, these provinces thrived as a crucial nexus in a sprawling trade network that spanned the continent.

Regrettably, such prosperity is now but a distant memory.

Ensnared by the grip of a relentless plague of undeath, meticulously crafted by the malevolent covens of the Night Sisters, the genesis of this scourge unfolded within the great city of Sesa. The affliction cascaded through the once-vibrant Amber Vale, subjecting its inhabitants to a wretched demise before compelling them to rise anew, driven by a relentless hunger for the living.

Once the crown jewel among the southern realms, the Amber Vale has devolved into a morass of malevolence and death, now infamous as the accursed Undead Wastes. A tidal wave of putrid flesh having severed the Old Kingdom from its allies, leaving in its wake a desolation that echoes with the groans of the reanimated.

Among the sparse remnants clinging to life in this once-verdant realm, mere specters of their former selves persist, eking out a meager existence in the shadows of malevolence.

The Fallen Kingdom Project

Much of the lore that this map pulls from is from our community campaign setting, the Fallen Kingdom that we host over on Legend Keeper. Feel free to check it out and join us on our Discord server if you want to join in!

This particular map features a few of our older maps too:

The Hall of Eternity - Located beneath the city of Eredia

Aldur’s Redoubt

Golem Dam

Dawsburg

Tor Immrek

Foundry Module: The Southern Provinces

For this release I tried something a little different. Using many of the assets in our Landing Page project I created a simple looped animation that you fine folks could use in your adventures.

Let me know what you think as I would be happy to do more things like this in the future if you guys are interested.

I have published the module in the Foundry Archive so jump over there is you want to give it a spin.
