I’ve got this worldbuilding project where a big chunk of land is cordoned off. I’m not sure what’s inside. (lemmy.world)

Vaguely poking at an alternate history type project where the USA fractured into multiple warring states in a multisided modern civil war.

Since I can’t help but inject some kind of weird horror elements I added “The Ohio Exclusion Zone”, an area roughly bordering Ohio that has been completely walled off. The wall is patrolled and watched. Whatever is beyond it is so serious that the warring states all agree the wall is off limits of the war.

I don’t know what is beyond it though. My first thought was skinwalkers. Shapeshifting weird spirits seems pretty ominous. Maybe instead f them, just a giant black orb hovering in Ohio and doing, something…

I don’t know. What weird paranormal thing would make the military patrol a border and is such a threat that enemies of that military agree the border is off limits in war.

(Yes I’m asking people to be creative for me…)
