Starveil Land lay on an outstretched peninsula of the Storm Continent.
The vast peninsula was connected to the main body of the Storm Continent, but the Death Storms sweeping across the immense Furnace Desert formed one barrier, while the Night's Veil Land, ruled by the Blood-Derived Fairies, formed another.
These two barriers kept the horrors deep within the continent from reaching Starveil Land. Yet they also cut humanity off from exploring the boundless Storm Continent, leading people to believe that their land was the center of the world.
And so,
the powerful human civilization of Starveil Land, flourishing on this peninsula, had long since grown accustomed to ignoring the lesser civilizations struggling to survive around it.
Their conduct was no different from that of the advanced civilizations deep within the continent toward the lesser civilizations around them.
The Rotting Sand Tower United Kingdom lay in a dark region of the vast Furnace Desert, unexplored by humans and the Blood-Derived Fairies.
A weak wind eye had naturally formed here long ago. Through the efforts of the God of Rot, it had expanded several times over, sustaining a far larger settlement around the wind eye and giving rise to a powerful kingdom.
And so, the story of the Molo Clan and humanity began here.
The Molo Clan stood around seventy centimeters tall on average and resembled mushrooms with soft tentacles.
From the description, the clan might seem somewhat similar to the Gulan Fairies, but the two were entirely different species.
The Gulan Fairies had evolved from a marine creature, while the Molo Clan were highly intelligent lifeforms descended from fungi.
For the vast majority of the Molo Clan, all history began with the great God of Rot.
Different peoples lived in different environments, and so their cultures and languages varied greatly.
