Vela, the Veil Between Planes
Everything around you is completely covered in snow and ice for miles on end. At the edge of the land mass is a glowing entrance surrounded by a mass of ice and snow, making it appear that it would be an entrance to a cavern village. The closer you venture,the more you realize that there isn't a pathway that would lead to the gates of a village, but instead a gateway to other dimensions that are parallel to Vennadore. The eerie glow that surrounds the strange doorway almost beckons you to explore outside of your own world, wishing that you leave this world and promises beautiful other worlds that the darkness hasn't touched. To the west of the portal, there are several small villages that dot the surrounding area. Many of them are abandoned or have very few villagers that reside in their communities. But the layout is always the same, just a single main road that is cleared of the snow and ice with huts and small building within the wooden and stone gates. The run-down villages looking as if a war had passed through not long ago, leaving some of the buildings and homes levelled to the ground. The villagers that wander these parts know about the pull of the magical gateway, warning visitors of the dangers that it posses. Strange beings and creatures are often found just outside the entrance either fully grown or as a child, some appearing to be Mundane but with the blood of those with a magical descent. As for those who do go through the portal, are never seen again. Lost to the other world and its false promises.
