The Mainland is the central hub of Kintara and the starting area for new players. It is a daylight safe zone where players can heal, bank items, visit shops, enter the casino, prepare for the Wilderness, and travel into the surrounding regions. Most early routes begin here: north leads into the Wilderness, east leads to The Pond, and south leads to Whisperwood.

Tip: Talk to the Quartermaster before your first Wilderness trip. He gives you a starter Sword and explains basic combat.
