Yeld

Yeld is a magical land that is accessible from Earth via portals. Modest is from Yeld and came to Earth via a portal that connects a lake in Yeld with a toilet in Sarah's house.

A number of the inhabitants in Yeld are from Earth but became trapped when the portals they took closed behind them. Humans who travel to Yeld are at risk of being infected and transformed into monsters by Yeld's evil if they stay for too long. The history and mechanics of Yeld are expanded on in The Magical Land of Yeld, an RPG created by Jake Richmond and Nick Smith that takes place in Yeld.

Yeld is ruled by a Vampire Prince. There are free cities that he does not rule over. After Marah won a duel with the Prince it upended the assumed balance of power in Yeld as people realized the Prince's power was not absolute and that they could choose whether to participate in the systemic cruelty he encouraged.

The Yeld economy is eggplant based. People are poor enough that eyeglasses are often passed down through the generations, even though there is an entire town where everyone wears glasses.
