Wimgarde

Wimgarde

Detachment from the current world, taking a step into Wimgarde, a fantasy world centered around the city of Aurora. Constant turmoil traveling from place to place as citizens need to trek through orc territory to get the the Merchant City of Vox or through the cursed valley which is filled with war just to get to Dressrosa. Confined to this world, citizens have no where to go as they struggle to get the the serenity of Bryn's Fairy Kingdom or to Everland's port City as both are blocked by obstacles and mountains.The only place of relief is the sanctity of the World Tree. If they travel to far, they come to the end. There is no escape from the world that mirrors USC, if one has gone to distant, they fall off into the dangers of the World's Edge Falls.
