It's not in RL, it's in the Feywild. It's apparently a mirror of the Domains of Dread concept, but we don't know much more about it than that, I think. Just as powerful evil can create domains of dread in the Shadowfell/Ravenloft, powerful good (or powerful fey in general?) can create domains of delight in the feywild. (perhaps similar to what used to be called a Fey Demesne.) You can probably safely ignore it, unless it piques your interest.

Aaaaaaah. Now I get the idea - I think. Thank you!

I have been following the news on this, checked the artwork here and there, but really - couldn't make the proper connections, given that I skipped most of 4e and 5e. - Like, I recently bought the "Haven" box set by Gamelords (from 1982) on Ebay, to eventually run it with ongoing "Beyond the Wall"-campaign. :lucas: That's my gaming curriculum for the last few years. :oops: :D More out of the loop, probably impossible.

That's why I'm honestly savoring this return to Ravenloft so much. It's probably vague the same ruleset, but it's a completely different experience.
