Much of Marema was destroyed by the Empire of Garen decades ago. The radioactive fallout destroyed most of the tropical rainforests and verdant countryside for which Marema was famous, leaving behind only a desert waste known as “The Deadlands”. In the century following the war, the once proud country of Marema has fallen into a slow decline from which it may never recover, with recent efforts at peace with Garen having mixed results. Twenty years after The Reclamation, the people of Marema are beginning to venture out into the Deadlands once more, but tribalism and economic struggles have left the few settlements which remain in a precarious position…meanwhile, the rest of the world continues on as it largely has, indifferent to the struggles of the Mareman people.
