The Cordelia Region, a vast area of the world home to numerous Temple Cities, is ruled by Cardinal Mortis, a very powerful Corrupted Sanguine who commands many troops throughout the region.
The Cordelia Region is divided by an extensive mountainous area called the "Cordelia Adornments Mountain Range," named in honor of the exquisite attire worn by the ancient queen of the Sanguines, who vanished alongside the Venerated Aleskra.
This mountain range cuts across the region after a certain point, and to travel between the two sections of the region, it takes many months of travel through the Adornos de Cordelia or special tools.
The forest where you currently find yourselves is, in fact, the beginning of the mountain range, though there is still a long way to go before reaching it.
