Cradle Locations
Cradle is an enormous planet with five huge continents, home to more than 300 billion souls. Thus far, as of book 10, the stories have played out on the Ashwind continent and the Ninecloud continent. However, a few small scenes capture the war-torn Rosegold continent. Ziel remembers his Dawnwing Sect on the Iceflower continent and Emriss Silentborn keeps quiet watch over a Dreadgod on the Everwood continent.
