A dangerous realm of kingdoms, relics, guilds, and histories written in dragonbone.
The heartland district exists because no crown could afford to let the others own the central transit nexus outright.
The Neutral Heartland is a political invention backed by fear, trade, and exhaustion. Its district law is narrow by design: maintain routes, protect envoys, and keep succession disputes from spilling into the central road web.
This compact matters to the website because future shard-aware history, guild diplomacy, and travel records all need a stable neutral reference point in the public archive.
The realm still organizes itself around battlefields and graves left by the last dragon war.
