The planet itself contains two large continents separated by an ocean.{{au ref|Threnody}} Little has been revealed about the larger of the two continents, although it is the original homeland of humans on Threnody.{{book ref|sfs}} It is known as the [[Fallen World]] and contains the [[Homeland]]. The smaller of the two continents is nearly entirely covered by the deciduous [[Forests of Hell]], along with rivers, some unforested mountains, and caves.{{au ref|Threnody}}{{book ref|sfs}} Fortress Cities have been built in the mountainous regions, while homesteads and waystops dot the Forests themselves, connected by primitive roads.{{book ref|sfs}} Silver appears to be an abundant resource on this continent, although it still remains valuable due to its usefulness in handling shades.

There are a wide variety of herbivores in the Forests including rodents, deer, birds, rabbits, and turkeys.{{book ref|sfs}} Hogs are kept by some of the inhabitants of the Forests, but they are not eaten.

The [[shade]]s themselves are the most numerous creatures within the Forests, and they limit population growth of humans and animal species alike by attacking any who break the Simple Rules, regardless of their intentions. The Forests themselves are said to be unnaturally quiet, particularly at night.
