The continent of Oakhaven is a vast boneyard of titans, their calcified forms rising as mountain ranges and mesas. From these fossil giants, the empire mines marrow — a volatile magical substance that has sparked an industrial renaissance even as it whispers forgotten secrets into the minds of those who handle it. Now the dead forests stir with necrotic life, and the soil itself remembers the gods buried beneath it, waiting to be awakened.
Setting
Geography
A jagged mountain range of fossilized vertebrae stretching across the continent, where miners descend into spinal canyons to extract the richest marrow deposits.
A living forest of petrified trees animated by seeping necrotic marrow, where roots pulse with forgotten divinity and the dead walk beneath crystalline canopies.
Vast grasslands dotted with massive curved formations of calcified ribs, where herders graze livestock on nutrient-rich grass growing from titan bone.
White cliffs of compressed bone fragments tower over the churning sea, where tide pools glow with bioluminescent marrow and ancient fossils wash ashore with each storm.
A massive depression formed by a titan's cranium, filled with shimmering marrow lakes where the reflected light shows visions of dead gods.

Threats
A spreading corruption born from over-extraction of titan marrow, turning fertile lands into necrotic wastelands and reanimating the dead as flesh-hollow servants.
The fossilized titans are not truly dead — they dream in the deep, and as marrow levels drop, ancient gods begin to wake beneath the soil.
