	The Broken Lands was originally designed with the premise of elaborating upon the relationship between the Dark Gods and the cults of the [[Unlife]]. Its documentation was given a specific date, 6521 [[Second Era]], which is [[Kharuugh\|significant]] to the surrounding region in the archaic [[Shadow World]] history. Other themes left implicit in it are its relationship with the [[Bandur Etrevion]] story, the surviving followers of the [[Empress Kadaena]] such as [[Lorgalis]], and their role in the origin of the Dark Gods. It was called "another plane of existence" in the text, but its creatures are not extra-planar in the modern mechanics.
