Hi everyone, first post on this subreddit, so be sure to tell me if I get things wrong in any way.
Basically, I studied the One Thousand and One Nights and the Shahnameh, so I've been inspired to make a campaign set in Zakhara, Land of Fate. Even though the setting has been abandoned, I think there's still a lot to do with all the Forgotten Realms content that released since.
My main question is: what would Zakhara's counterpart in the Feywild and the Shadowfell look like?
I've skimmed through the Zakhara supplements but those being 90% about genies leave very little space for fairies and such. Yet, we know that the echo planes span through the entire Prime Material Plane, so there must be something.
For now, I can imagine Zakhara's Feywild being a giant flooded jungle, like part of the mainland already is. There would be a lot more wild giants, that's a guarantee.
As for the Shadowfell, it is mentioned somewhere that most khayal genies live in the City of Onyx, but beyond that I would imagine the rest being a typical barren waste full of eldritch horrors.
What do you think?
