The perpetual battleground between northern Humans and southern Drakes — a borderland soaked in centuries of blood where the grass grows red and the fighting never truly stops.
The Blood Fields are exactly what they sound like. The contested border between Human-controlled northern Izril and Drake-controlled southern Izril has been fought over for so long that the earth itself has changed. The vegetation grows in shades of crimson, fed by centuries of spilled blood and the ambient magic of countless Skills discharged in combat. It's beautiful in the worst possible way. Armies clash here seasonally. Drake legions push north; Human levies push south. Neither side gains permanent ground. The fighting has become ritualized enough that both sides maintain supply lines, field hospitals, and rotation schedules — war as institution, violence as tradition. The Blood Fields are where young [Soldiers] earn their first levels and old [Generals] test their latest strategies. It's where species that could coexist choose not to, over and over, because the hatred has been passed down so many generations that no one remembers the original cause. Erin's magic door, connecting Drake and Human cities, is the first thing in centuries to challenge the assumption that the Blood Fields are permanent.
