South-east English Exclusion Zone and Wildlife Preserve

The South-east English Exclusion Zone and Wildlife Preserve is blocked of section of land comprising almost the entirety of southeastern England, including Greater London region, Essex, Kent, East Sussex, West Sussex, Surrey, Hampshire, Berks and parts of Wiltshire, Oxford, Hertfordshire, Bucks and Buckinghamshire. It was sectioned off after an Achrinian warship fired an energy weapon at London, wiping out its entire human population in an instant. However many plants and animals survived and began to thrive in the region, aided by strange energy residue that, while harmful to humans, seemed to strengthen the wildlife. This prompted government officials to turn the quarantine zone into a wildlife preserve.

## Wildlife

Various Jötnar species often stop in the exclusion zone to relax, seemingly attracted by energy signatures from the Achrinian weapon strikes.
