Forgotten Streams
Were the ethereal streams of energy the only mark on this ill begotten wasteland that would be the end of it. The barren rocks that floated around the life stream cracked and crashed against one another; breeding more debris. More pain of the few that deigned to live here. A wrecked city, a blasted grave of supposed airships and forgotten lands could be seen for miles upon miles. This place floated easily above luminas, taking up a massive length of space between it and the cold abyss that yawned past it.
The Stone Circles
This primarily makes up the forgotten stream, many types of lands blasted into the sky or withered away to the point of where they came here. Floating in an endless tumble with lands barely clinging to existence. It's not entirely uncommon to have different lands smash into one another creating more debris and more places for people to explore or mine. Metal is quite rich here and small mining communities can be found here or there. It isn't a surprise to see them destroyed as safety is hardly a common thing here. Gravity is one of the most destructive forces after all and any semblance of it draws in more and more debris. To get anywhere in the Forgotten streams you must first pass through the Stone Circles as it encompasses the entirety of this land.
The Broken City
One of thousands of wreckage float around in the wastes that are this landscape. Buildings of all sorts which all are destroyed or broken in one way or another float closely to the major ethereal streams of energy. But even with such destruction of home and hearth do people live here. They do not flourish like other places, for there is no land to really live off of here. The ethereal streams provide the nourishment to the many denizens that deign to live in this worthless place. They are constantly raided by the bandit groups that roam the Forgotten streams.
The Ruins of Eternity
Past the living breathing portion of the forgotten data stream is the ruins. Massive in structure and stretching hundreds of miles if not nearly a thousand. But they aren't clear and concise like the broken city. It doesn't have a proper starting or end. It simply does. The ruins hold many secrets of past civilizations, past digital worlds and even some tidbits for future ones. Many artifacts of many different cultures remain here as do their guardians. This is easily one of the most dangerous places as once you get too deep? There is no proper way out without bending the digital world to your whims. The bandits only ever skim the surface, meaning the more succulent prizes are deeper within..
The Stone Halls
Once this place was a mighty fortress, meant to be a bastion to the people of the digital world. But now it functions more like a tomb than anything else. Within it's massive grey halls the undead roam; an ever vigilant guard of the necromantic cult that lives there. It's rare for people to go into the stone halls as it's Gothic structure easily marks it as turf for the necromancers. It's oddly apart from the rest of the massive locations; warping in and out of reality as night and day switch sides. The group here often forays into the ruins and clashes with the bandits adding further to their zombie forces...
The Core of Eternity
Easily one of the most powerful artifacts known to the digital world. It's regarded as a taboo item. For none can control it's might nor does it allow itself to be controlled. Instead it constantly belches out more and more debris for those that live in this place further expanding the ruins. There are some that have claimed to have seen this mighty artifact; but no one has ever managed to make it to this mighty place and back again with losing something they treasure.
Empyrean Graveyard
Mighty sky ships, hundreds in number float in a massive wreckage pool of twisted parts, broken and gutted much like a fish. These ships used to be the prime force of the Empyrean navy. This place is a smorgasbord for scavengers and violent bandits that desire to make this place the start of a new empire or simply wish to feast on those foolish enough to come into this land. There are a few vestiges of order here ranging from the occasional Angel to scavenging group sanctioned from the city of Luminas.
The Iron Fortress
What could be considered the only large and somewhat sturdy location in this hellscape is also the third most dangerous. The bandit groups use this massive chunk of hollowed out metal as a base to send out their raiding parties into where-ever they see fit. It's the center of this land making it the easiest place for them to do so from. If they only could stand to work together more often they would be a larger threat...
The Iron Canteen
Willing to serve anyone and everyone that makes it this far. The Iron Canteen is on the outskirts of the Iron Fortress and is widely regarded as the only true safe zone in this land as none desire to combat the bandit group that decided to set it up. It's maybe a fourth of the size of the iron fortress and easily twice as dangerous as the automated defenses shred through most that would cause trouble here.
The Silver Vein
A massive and utterly unsurprising meteor made of nothing but some of the rarest materials known to the digital world. If you can find it somewhere in the world you can find it here. Constant activity of bandits and Luminas forces make this place a hot zone. Any miner worth their salt will try to make it to the Silver vein even if it is in between the graveyard and iron Fortress. Easily making it one of the more dangerous locations in the Forgotten Streams. During sunrise this large meteor can be seen from almost anywhere in the Streams and many use it as a navigation point even at night as it's impossible to miss. Were this a more peaceful place this could be a tourist attraction.
