Lands of Exiles

  • Linear Location

    By Walking Path off A361, Wardington, England, UK (52°7'7"N 1°17'15"W)

Overview

Some people hear about the place and think of it as bucolic because of the Silicane and the non-lethality of it. However, another way to see it is that this area consists of a group of gwomes so committed to the continuation of warfare, that they will do it even with less fatalities

Access

The part of the story installed here:

Lands of Exiles

The swath of land between the Thames and the Wheel of Faith, across the center of what is now called linear Britain, was the home of the Exile gwomes, an area of constant war and much diversity: Saxons, the Legions of Reasonably Tall Men, Normans, Saracens, Vesuvii, Jihn Wranglikans, Zulu, Fendest, and even a gwome of land seals. But after the depopulating Greatwater Flood, a truce was called and, upon much consideration, the Wardington Rules of War were agreed on. From then on, largely due to the use of potent silicane-like tranquilizers, soldiers were rarely killed in combat, but instead were utterly exiled and mourned as dead—as they truly were in every other sense. Indeed, the word exile comes from the False Cognate for ‘deceased,’ and any attempt to resume contact led to the slaughter of the whole family.
