|Introduction=~~'''~~Baelmarsh~~'''~~ is a ~~realm of still waters, tangled roots, and the weight~~ of ~~memory~~. It is a land where ~~time does not erase but preserves~~, ~~where~~ the ~~past lingers~~ beneath the ~~silt and waits to be uncovered~~.

|Introduction=Baelmarsh is not a land of conquest or wealth. It is a land of remnants—a place where nothing is truly lost, only waiting beneath the water, buried beneath the roots.

~~Here~~, ~~villages stand long after their inhabitants are gone, their doorways yawning, their lanterns unburnt. Ancient roads vanish into the mire, yet footsteps~~ still ~~echo upon them~~. ~~Ruins remain half-sunken~~, ~~not crumbling~~ but ~~waiting—as if their stories are not yet finished~~.

Few come here willingly, and fewer still leave unchanged. Those who enter do so not for riches or power, but for answers, closure, or something long forgotten.

Baelmarsh is not ~~a land of decay~~. It ~~is a land~~ of ~~unfinished endings~~.

Some seek the Half-Sunken Archive, a library whose ink shifts when read, revealing histories erased from time. Others follow the Hollow Procession, hoping to glimpse the faces of lost loved ones.

The waters of the Mireglass Expanse do not reflect what is, but what was, drawing scholars, diviners, and the grieving to its shores.

And some, desperate and reckless, seek out the Wraithroot Witches, offering their own memories in trade for knowledge, revenge, or secrets no mortal should know.

Baelmarsh does not lure travelers with gold. It calls to those who cannot let go of the past.

|History=The history of Baelmarsh is not written—it is buried. Unlike other realms, whose pasts are shaped by war and conquest, Baelmarsh’s past is silent, sunken, and preserved beneath its waters.
