the den of the aggressive blackshards lies underneath the structure of ruins. a jagged broken path trails from the main level down into the darkness, and into the dens. the stone walls are damp and the air is heavy, as though the pipelines were still being used. a central space provides an area to gather, while there are paths splitting off of it going to the dens for different ranks, as well as water sources around the blackshards' territory.

a decrepit old statue sits guiard by the jagged path on the upperworld level. two remms are stationed there to guard the upperworld entrance to the underworld - and the blackshard kits. no skyseeker is ever allowed past this point, if they even made it into the territory itself.

beneath the main area of the underworld lies a small den, tucked away in a nook so that no outsider may reach it. this is the crystal den and is a sacred place for the blackshards, as their first ancestors, shard and june, perished in this very area. glowing crystals adorn the walls, giving the area a murky light. in hard times, speakers like to sleep in the den, to seek help from the circle of skyshards.

out on the plains of the blackshards' territory, remms like to go on hunting patrols and have battle training. this area is good for hunting rabbits and other quick moving mammals. far at the low end of their territory, a stretch of woodland provides a good source of mice and squirrels. here and there, crumbling walls of old buildings serve as hiding spots for cats looking for some alone time.

all the skyseekers rest and live inside one of the oldest buildings of the ruins. They call it the sky palace, for it is high on a hill of rock shelves that they must climb up to get to their home. windows around the ruin allow the cats to get a glorious view of the land around them, from the base of the ruin down to the last tree of the blackshards' forest. all the cats sleep together in the biggest room, the only separation being the vitas with their kits in a room close by.

the skylands are the main area of the skyseekers' territory. it's mostly overgrown stone paths between tall, rundown buildings with columns and arching doorways. This, being a perfect home for small prey, is where the remms mostly hunt. if the blackshards ever invaded, this would make a good battleground, where the swift cats can hide.

near the border with the blackshards, there is a'hill' of cliffs. this cliff often homes birds, and is where remms often hunt them [despite the fact that they do most of their hunting in the skylands]. There is also a very high shelf of cliffs where skyseekers can look to see invading blackshards and warn the circle, as well as attack from above. the blackshards would do anything to get this piece of land!

almost on top of the border with the blackshards, a small cluster of buildings lies in shelter of the cliffs. this area is actually a real village - or, well, used to be. some buildings are still all together, but most are in part or completely destroyed. most remms are wary around this area, for it would be easy for a blackshard to hide amongst the buildings and jump on some cat.
