Landmarks

The Big Hand

Located in Palm Valley, the Big Hand looks like a hand reaching out of Atys towards the sky. Many homins have created tales about the Big Hand. Some Zoraï believe it is the hand of Ma-Duk, some believe it's the hand of Jena reaching for the stars, and some even believe it's the hand of the great dragon trapped there by the Karavan as it was looking to escape back into the sky. However most simply believe it's just an odd occurrence in the geology of Atys.

The Great Boulder

Another unique geographical structure of the area; many homins climb to the top of this structure to enjoy a view that can not be matched in any other part of Witherings.
