Editing Talislanta (section)

===The Darkness===
Across the Midnight Sea, is the Darkness alias the Midnight Realm. This is by far the best-documented external realm. Morrigan Press, who had the Talislanta licence in 2005, published a whole thing on that. Which also has much to report on the Lower Planes ''en passant''.

The Darkness is a hellish demiplane, and yes Morrigan was not above floating the word "grim" in this context. Its land is in two masses, a larger northeastern one and a smaller southwestern one, connected by a narrow isthmus.

The big sub-island used to be the civilisation of Thanatus. Now it is the Fallen Lands - so called because there's a massive rift to the <strike>Abyss</strike>Demonrealms there, which wasn't plugged in time. This place has gone full [[Iuz]], even [[Pathfinder|Worldwound]]. Rivers of molten iron, that sort of thing.

To the extent the Darkness has civilisation, that would be in the southwestern sub-island. Here are the Nine Princedoms. This is run by Tarterans, Talislantese for "tieflings". Tarterans have a caste society, as Lawful Evils do, so it's not exactly rainbows and puppies here either.
