the Warmreach
A warm, water-rich mid-Deeps gallery seized from Skarn, serving as the colony's second seat.
The Warmreach is a lush, water-saturated gallery in the mid-Deeps that was taken from the tyrant Skarn during the events of Book 2. Unlike the Marrow, this location represents the first true colony established by the Bound, where dozens of individuals began to settle and develop distinct roles within their society.
Functioning as the nation's second seat, the Warmreach serves a triple purpose: it is a nursery for the young, a larder for sustenance, and a worked-stone dead-room. Rather than being destroyed in conflict, the area was subjugated and integrated into the collective holdings, becoming a cornerstone of their emerging civilization.

Lore & Background
