clan of the blacksand mesa
.......................... a territory resting at the far east of the Ashfall Waste
that stretches to the borders of the Shifting Expanse.
it is governed by a lone mirror and her circle, where
over time the mesafolk have found home in this lawless
wasteland. the dark chambers are filled with voices
and the wind is swept by salt and smoke.

harpy beastclans in nearby territories have allied with
the dragons of the mesa to protect this barren ground
and involve in occasional trade. the chambers are hidden
within narrow pathways of sunken walls and carved,
black rock swathed with woven fabrics. funnels and vents
constantly billow out plumes of sweet-smelling smoke,
guiding fires are lit on top of rocky pinnacles, and many
mouths are carved into the steep cliffs to provide lookout
and access. anything happens in the smog of the night,
the howling of dragonfolk that have travelled far across the
dark plateau share tales of their strange journey. to the west,
the waning flicker of the Great Furnace's flame can be seen.
so far from either region, these unclaimed skies carry both
a charged air and volcanic haze. where shadows have
walked before, have unfinished work beneath the dust.

the ashen choir » some native banescale have migrated to the mesa, their vocal nature and inherent desire to revel in music and voice gave birth to the sound of song, within the mesa’s dark chambers, where these banescale partake in ceremonial sessions. some of the mesafolk have included themselves within the group as well, ringing foreign verses of a foreign time.

orange day » once a year during the cold season, festivities are held on the appearance of the autumnal spirit Halmi, by adorning each other in bright jewellery and silks. citrus fruits are dried by the fire to create sweet aromas in every tent and chamber. by word on the wind, sour fruits are, apparently, Jernejka’s staple food.
