The Wartorn Cluster is a Cluster first mentioned in the Lilliend Gazetteer in Quoth the Raven Issue 25. It apparently formed in the year 740 BC, when the Grand Conjunction rocked the Demiplane of Dread.
The Cluster is accessible through an unusual Mistway, the Threefold Path, that can be opened from the Misty border of Sithicus on a specific conjunction of astrological and astronomical events by bringing a blood sacrifice of an unspecified nature. Knowledge of the Mistway was most recently discovered in a grimoire from Kalidnay. The Mistway is stable once opened, but takes a heavy toll on travelers, obliging them to endure despair, madness and emptiness before depositing them in Lilliend's western region of L'Haut.
A second Mistway, the Piper's Lament, creates a stable passage between Forlorn and the island of Castra, but requires a ritual duel to the death by two bards to activate from either end.
The Cluster has not been fully explored yet, but Domains belonging to it include the Broken Wheel, Conquista, Lilliend, East- and West-Lund, Maldoma, Malopelagio, savage Masogan, dread Obissol, North- and South-Raba and Vieuxlyons.
Unusual creatures which seem native only to the Wartorn Cluster include Lilliender vampires (from Lilliend) and Ogier (which have spread from the Broken Wheel).
