Setting

This is a plane outside other plane. Its hunger extends out, grasping other worlds in its grip. The form is that of a small planet. It can be walked around in a single day. The ground is that of a pale sand. Attempting to fly away from the planet will find only emptiness without end. There's something wrong about the shadows in this world, with peculiar warped shapes like they don't belong to the objects casting them.

The Pale Forest
The area you first found yourself within. All of the foilage is uncannily pale. The trees are bare with jutting thorns. No signs of animal life exist other than the occasional bare human footprint. It is completely lacking in edible plants.

The Maw
A tall mound rising out of the ground. Its cap opens into a maw lined with teeth, leading deep into the earth. Those that go inside do not return. A steady procession of pale, humanoid headless figures slowly marches from the woods and up the hill to hurl themselves into its depths.

The Caverns
Some entrances here and there exist. Attempting to tunnel or blast a hole will also take you into those. The cave formations greatly resemble sharp teeth. Some seem to have furnishings and doors, just waiting for someone to move in. Some of those 'rooms', for they are all natural unworked caves, have skeletons or piles of human teeth in them.

Tunneling deeper than this leads to disaster.

The Ivory Houses
A huge mass of roughly conical tooth-like ivory buildings all jammed together and stretching for miles with doors dotting the outside. The insides are many randomly connected conical rooms with windows high up showing the other cones. Each room is furnished with ivory and white silk. The rooms are laid out without rhyme or reason.

For example, a kitchen next to a bedroom next to a study, which is next to a dining room. Any room one could conceviably find in a mansion exists here, even foyers far from any outside doors, and many redundancies exist. The kitchens, pastries, and similar rooms are alway well stocked but all stocked foods are pale and colorless.

Living rooms with televisions exist, but they show static most of the time. Computer rooms exist, but the OS is bizarre and hard to figure out, features teeth heavily in its user interface, and only an intranet seems to exist with most addresses featuring page after page of pictures of sharp teeth.
