	The '''Lands of Limestone and Chalk''' are a fortified "city" of tall, weathered buildings made of, appropriately, limestone and chalk, at the far towerward end of the [[Darran isles]]. These buildings were created by the [[Spirit of the Glen]], a ~~minor~~ [[~~æon~~]], with the purpose of serving as a sort of shell for its meek, luminous body, residing deep within the highest tower. The Spirit continues to threaten the inhabitants of the isles, as it desires to cover more of its surface with its domain. To prevent this, people are brought from every settlement on the [[Kingdom of Darran]] as sacrifices, providing the Spirit with more ''noch'' to protect its walls.

			=== Spirit of the Glen ===
			The Spirit of the Glen is a lesser Æon characterised by its need for self-preservation. It is unknown what originated it, or where it ultimately came from, but it has lodged itself at the very top of a self-built limestone tower, and built halls and rooms around it, like veins and arteries which guide its shadowy servants along. It holds no malice, no contempt for anything, but still threatens the lives of the inhabitants of Darran with its need for expansion and protection.

The '''Lands of Limestone and Chalk''' are a fortified "city" of tall, weathered buildings made of, appropriately, limestone and chalk, at the far towerward end of the [[Darran isles]]. These buildings were created by the [[Spirit of the Glen]], a minor [[æon]], with the purpose of serving as a sort of shell for its meek, luminous body, residing deep within the highest tower. The Spirit continues to threaten the inhabitants of the isles, as it desires to cover more of its surface with its domain. To prevent this, people are brought from every settlement on the [[Kingdom of Darran]] as sacrifices, providing the Spirit with more ''noch'' to protect its walls.

== Inner workings ==

=== Orrons ===
[[File:Orron.png|thumb|An orron.]]
The Lands are protected by towering chimeric beasts, the [[Orron|orrons]], with the head and body of a large cat, the feathers and wings of a hawk, and the intelligence of a crow, along with horns; two above the eyes and one on the nose. They are typically solitary beings and frequently fight for territory, a behaviour that naturally creates smaller areas which they fiercely protect.

=== Noch ===
[[File:Noch.png|thumb|A noch.]]
The [[noch]] (pronounced akin to ''loch'') are silent but highly intelligent anthropomorphic beings made of pure darkened [[æther]]. They are the trapped spirits of people sacrificed to the Spirit of the Glen, and sparsely populate the vast halls and corridors of every building. All of them seem intent in serving the Spirit, capturing people who wander into the Lands and putting them in coffins to be made into more noch.
