The oceans of Putriea are choked with islands and in turn the islands are overrun with a wildfire cancer of vegetation – a morass of stinking kelp, strangling vines and towering fungal cathedrals. Worse still, the islands themselves are alive. Just look beneath the waterline and you'll see them breathing and pulsing."* ## Environment - Sewage kelp oceans - Living coral archipelagos - Fecund fungus jungles - Thick spore cloud layer (Strangle Zone) - Drooling mucous rain ## Major Locations - **The Shell** - Coral necropolis of ancient origins - **Diadem** - Pretech factory complex burrowing into the Mire like a parasite, operated by the Insurgents - **The Mire** - The fecund jungle found deeper inside the continent - **The Coil** - Twisting labyrinth of waterways winding into the heart of the continent - **Azure, Topaz, Emerald, Ruby** - Mega-coral islands - **Sungairac River** - Poisoned river (local language) - **Antigone Base** - Crumbling Dual Monarchy naval base - **Dolorosa Breach** - Dual Monarchy beachhead on the Dolorosa Continent ## The War The Dual Monarchy has been attempting to conquer Putriea in an almost decade-long conflict, fighting local guerillas backed by Ispania. ### Redemption of Souls and the Skymarshal Dual Monarchy carrier with a destroyed drive, scuttled in Putriea's orbit.
