Las Tierras de las Sombras es una sección de las Raíces Primarias tremendamente larga que consiste de cuatro regiones dispuestas en una línea recta de Norte a Sur. Todas tienen túneles conectados a la superficie, y están conectadas directamente a 3 de los 4 continentes.
Posee un túnel que se dirige al Desierto Ardiente en su parte más norte, un túnel que va a Witherings en la parte mas sur-oeste, y un túnel que desemboca en Aeden Aqueous al extremo sur-este. Finalmente, tiene un túnel en el medio que sale al Nexo. A través del Nexo y el Abismo de Ichor, uno puede eventualmente viajar a los cuatro continentes, Alturas Verdes.
Debido a que esta vía conecta a todos los continentes, es la sección mas transitada de las Raíces Primarias. Es también, por mucho, la mas segura ya que no posee Patrullas Kitin excepto una relativamente débil en el Bosque Elusivo, y los depredadores normales son sólo de niveles 100 a 200. Las regiones mas extremas al norte y al sur pueden ser un poco traicioneras, pero las regiones medias son comúnmente usadas por excavadores novatos de las Raíces Primarias.
No obstante su seguridad, todas las Tierras de las Sombras son una zona abierta al JvJ.

Fauna y Flora
La Fauna de las Tierras de las Sombras varía por región.
Gate of Obscurity y Windy Gate son plácidamente pastoreadas armas, bodocs, izams y lumpers. Estos herbívoros son cazados por los hornchers y zerx locales. Los kitins por supuesto también tienen su hogar en las Raíces Primarias, y estas regiones son hogar para los pacíficos kipee y kizoar y los menos pacíficos kipestas y kinchers.
Elusive Forest y Trench of Trials have thriving populations of bodocs, yelks and gubanis, which are preyed upon by large numbers of varinx and tyranchas. In addition to the kitin found in the other regions, these regions also house kibans, kirostas and kipuckas.
Forest of jubla can be found in all regions, as can bands of indigenous cutes.
Regions
From north to south:
Windy Gate
The most northern region, connected in the far north to the Burning Desert. It's probably the most abandoned region. Beginning Prime Root foragers tend to prefer Gate of Obscurity, which has fewer predators. And since there are easier routes into and out of the Burning Desert, only the occasional travel party comes through here.
Elusive Forest
Considered the main region of Lands of Umbra, and probably the most active. Because of it's relative lack of predators, it's widely preferred by both beginning and advanced Prime Root foragers. Even master Prime Root foragers still regularly visit this region because of the Supernodes at it's borders, which contain up to quality 250 supreme materials. And because the region is directly connected to Nexus, it's relatively easy for neutral players without PR-teleports to visit.
Gate of Obscurity
Another extremely elongated region, Gate of Obscurity is probably the easiest Prime Roots region on Atys. As such, it's popular amongst beginning Prime Root foragers.
Trench of Trials
The most southern region, connected to both the Witherings and Aeden Aqueous. This region isn't very popular with foragers, who tend to prefer Elusive Forest for it's sparser populations of predators. But because this region is the shortest route between the Witherings and Aeden Aqueous, it sees many travelling parties pass through.
Landmarks
Most landmarks will be in their respective region pages, but some are characteristic enough to leave their mark on the whole Lands of Umbra section.
Underwood Woe
The twisted tunnels of Underwood Woe in eastern Elusive Forest are home to a nest of kitin. Hundreds of elite Kinrey and Kidinak crawl through the tunnels, protecting the Kizarak and the precious larva. Over the decades many homin armies have attempted to siege this nest for various reasons. Only few have succeeded, and the kitin have always returned.
The Fallen Tree
A huge hollow fallen tree in Windy Gate. It's inside is a gigantic cave, and you'd hardly know you were inside a tree. The Fallen Tree is home to Cukoo.
The southern sap lake
In the south of Trench of Trials is an unnamed shallow lake of sap that travelling parties crossing the region tend to pass right by. Many homins who are used to these sap lakes having a few deep spots to hide in from predators have been unpleasantly surprised to find that this sap lake has none.
