When the Humans came to the shores of Xu, many of its indigenous people were forced to move their settlements further inland. One such group was known as the Hazim - pirates and bandits who had always shared rather rocky relations with the Imperials. As nomads, they rarely reside in one spot, with the exception of the vacant wastes of Xu that their tribes have turned into their home for generations to come.
But even without the brutal Hazim, the Red Wastes would prove to pose many dangers. Its scorching red sands are home to many heinous creatures from the Black Jungle, and the old ruins of this place all but overflow with the rotten corpses of the Undead. Truly, not a pleasant place, alas, after the Convocation, it is one of the few existing paths connecting the north and south of Xu.
