Think they were in the Hall of Elemental Hunters, but you're right, I have no proof they will be monsters, just that it's likely "those who reside in the Labyrinth" would be of that category. Entirely possible there could be humanoids (in the sense of the common sentient races of the Land) residing there as well
That's what i figured was meant by residents. Tribes and nations existing within pockets of the labyrinth.
Every time he looked at Hasako and at the linch the stats were ??? I think this is because they were higher tier, foreshadowing there are tiers and Ritcher will tier up.
In the prolog of book one it says he fights through the wilds to get to the Castle of Transition. Could be The Wilds, the land north of the River Peninsula where an old empire once lost a war against the Banks. Perhaps we will see this area one day and Ritcher will recognize it.
If so then he entered the Wilds from a completely different direction then the River Peninsula, because he also mentioned that he hadn't ever been to there, in fact he said that the Patch to Travel to the River Peninsula hadn't been Released Yet. Also the Imp said that The Land was much bigger then in the Game so it's likely that enter Continents might not have been included and large areas of those that was included was likely to be trimmed, shrunk and just missed out. Also in a place as big as The Land it's likely there a numerous places that a called the Wilds by its inhabitants, so can't be sure they were talking about the same place.
Didn’t the wilds include all of the river peninsula? At least that’s my take on it. As Ricther reconnects those long lost locations and places of power he unveiles to the wilds. The wilds should shrink as they are tamed. I agree with Lynas it’s likely that there are many locations referenced as the wilds.
Well the specific region referred to as the wilds is in the northern half of the map above Rione. This region may well stretch far beyond the northern edge of the map. It used to be a huge prosperous empire, until it got uppity with the banking alliance and paid the price. The banks truly are too big to fail.
I had seen this map before but I just saw the greater words (The Wilds) as nearly a continental name. With all the smaller lettering being countries, settlements, and other lesser geographical areas carved out of “the Wilds”. Of course that is only my assumption. That’s another reason I would really like Randy and Ricther to question his floating orb. If the Mist Village wasn’t part of the lost Empire that fought against the banks what Empire or empire’s has it been part of? Lurch needs to answer some questions.
I think the rivers we see on the map are the big ones. What i'd like to know is more about is the whisper woods and its connection to the forest of Nadria. I wouldn't be surprised if it turned out to have once been a single huge woodland, before the ascendance of the Yvesian warmongerers.
Plus I suspect that the Map isn't showing all or even most of the River Peninsula, just the bottom part of it.
Which is just a chunk of the continent the river peninsula is a part of according to book 8. Jupiter sized world. Its mindboggling huge, with the forest of Nadria alone being the size of Alaska KIngdom of Yves is even bigger, maybe twice or tripple that size going by the map.
If Richter can bring both regions (surface and catacombs) under his rule, whether through force of arms or diplomacy he would have taken a good first step towards building an empire. The firetip mountains (dwarves being the main good race there as far as we know) would be an easy next step. Also, on a completely unrelated note. The ogre lord as I now imagine him
With that being said the River Peninsula isn’t much of a river peninsula. It’s more of a spider veined nipple. Aleron should have looked up some geography before naming the region. Not that I’m the the go to guy on the subject. I just think It should have been called a river delta.
It probably should have. But consider this: Greenland is a frozen hellscape and iceland is actually kinda nice in comparison. Names aren¨t necessarily accurate descriptions.
