Lae

Age: 17
Hometown: Haichenja

This energetic teenager has a strong sense of honor and takes her job guarding pilgrims very seriously. She is one of the few people born in the jungle and immune to its warping power. Lae's hobby is collecting relics from the ruins scattered around the jungle.

Silas

Age: 20+??
Hometown: Solvalia

Never quick to make judgement, this ghost likes to think carefully before making decisions. After many quiet years alone in the jungle, he is fascinated by Lae's culture. Silas' pocket watch is what anchors him to this world.

Kaga

Age: 18
Hometown: Tashoni

Charismatic and carefree, Prince Kagagi has a lot to learn about leading the kingdom. His intentions are in the right place but sometimes he is too naive. With no mother or siblings, Kaga learned to think of his future kingdom as his family.

Bijan

Age: 65
Hometown: Haichenja

This kind, knowledgeable mentor treats Lae as his own daughter even though they aren't related by blood. An old injury has slowed him down considerably but the village of Haichenja still looks to Bijan for leadership. He has a special affinity with birds and keeps several as pets.

Tamal

Age: 19
Hometown: Tashoni

Stubborn and suspicious towards everyone new, this guard is difficult to get to know. But Tamal's devotion to those he likes is unshakeable. Since he is the son of the captain of the guard, he joined the prince's guard very early. He is an excellent cook.

Iyare

Age: 30
Hometown: Mai Susa

Despite growing up poor and homeless, Iyare maintains a very positive attitude. He is grateful to the prince for his job and steady income. Being able to support his wife and young daughter means the world to him.

Nulu

Age: 15
Hometown: Omohoi

Sweet and cheerful, Nulu makes friends easily. She came to Haichenja alone for her pilgrimage because she knew her family couldn't spare anyone from the fields. She can sleep through anything.

Locations

Haichenja

There are several settlements for pilgrimages but this one is unique because of how deep into the jungle it is. Rustic facilities make it unpopular with the rich even though it is the closest pilgrimage village to the capital. Villagers harvest a rare wildflower during the rainy season that makes an expensive blue dye.

Omohoi

This rice-growing community at the center of the plains is the heart of Tashoni's nature-worshiping tradition. Peaceful pools and fanciful rocks are regarded as sleeping immortals. The locals are admired for their near daily offerings to the "ancestors."

Solvalia

Once the spiritual and academic center of the Cunaveri nation, Solvalia is now nothing but ruins covered in the jungle's miasma. It is a treasure trove of artifacts and tools for those who can reach it, though very few dare.

Tashoni

Featuring an impressive palace, the capital is the center of trade, law, and legend for the Tashoni people.
