The Shadow Rift appears from the outside as a deep chasm full of Mist. But at the bottom of the chasm is a thriving civilization of Shadow Fey, protected from the sun by the Mists above. The interior of the Shadow Rift is subject to a temporal fugue, so that a fortnight outside the Rift corresponds to a year inside.
The darklord of the domain is Gwydion, though he remains trapped within the Obsidian Gate.
