Viroscek

Viroscek is a land in the far reaches of Cyristiii. It is unclear if Cyristiii is the name of a plane, or if it some land on an unnamed plane.
==Description==
Viroscek was located in the far provinces of Cyristiii, a year's hard ride from the edge of the civilized world on an unnamed plane. Viroscek means "The Place of the Damned", but it does not appear on any maps. Nobody goes there, nobody wants to go there. The land is a black, brittle cinder, hardened by centuries of battle; the waters are brackish, foul-smelling, and redolent with blood.; the skies are dark and openly hostile to the light; the only plants are the carnivorous, sucker-mouthed vines that snake from horizon to horizon, growing plump on the flesh of the fallen. Long ago, this land was known as "Woerishin", a name that means "Touched With Perfection". Sometime later, perhaps centuries after the death of Xavis's opponent, Viroscek became almost peaceful, and grass seedlings were beginning to sprout where for so long, no life was ever permitted to grow.The Face of the Enemy by Adam-Troy Castro from the Distant Planes Anthology (1996), Kathy Ice (ed.), HarperPrism
