The mortal side of the barrier, disease-touched countryside and ordinary parishes set against the immortal darklands. Foxglove and its rites belong to this world.

The mortal lands begin as the fragile, disease-touched counterpart to the immortal darklands, separated by a barrier and home to ordinary parishes and the village of Foxglove with its ancient rites. Across the series, this realm remains the human world on the mortal side of the divide, its countryside and communities defined by their vulnerability to the immortal forces beyond the barrier.
