In Imperium, we were always taught the Wyldness was nothing but lava pools, and gross melons.
The Lava Wastes are but one region of my land. There are many others. Diamond Glaciers, the Forever Rock, Boiling Beach, and here, the Forest of Spirits.
The Lava Wastes are a volcanic desert in the Wyldness.
History
Background
In the Lava Wastes, a ship carrying Wyldfyre and the Caregiver bot crash-landed. Heatwave, a dragon, was asked by the Caregiver bot to take care of Wyldfyre, and he agreed. For years, Wyldfyre grew up under the care of Lava Dragons, including Heatwave and the Caregiver bot in the Lava Wastes. But most of the dragons that raised Wyldfyre died due to the Wasting Sickness, leaving Heatwave as her sole guardian.[1] During the Merge, Wyldfyre gained the Elemental Power of Heat. Eventually, Wyldfyre started playing pranks in the Lava-Tides at their village. The Claws of Imperium arrived in the Lava Wastes one day, aiming to capture Heatwave and exploit his dragon power for the Kingdom of Imperium. To save Heatwave, Wyldfyre made the decision to leave the Lava Wastes.[2][3]
Wyldly Inappropriate
Kai and Wyldfyre journeyed to the Lava Wastes in order to request the purple Dragon Core from the Lava-Tides. Unfortunately, due to Wyldfyre's pranks, the Lava-Tides refused to grant their request unless she cleaned up the mess caused by her pranks. Despite their efforts in cleaning up, the Lava-Tides broke their promise and threw the core into the Pit of No Return. Determined, Kai and Wyldfyre ventured into the pit to retrieve the Dragon Core, facing Death Wasps along the way. Once they escaped, they sealed the pit, only to be confronted by Dorama and his stagehands.
They Call It Doom
Kai and Wyldfyre engaged in a fierce battle with Dorama, his stagehands, and the Lava-Tides over the purple Dragon Core. In the midst of the chaos, Dorama replaced the real core with a fake one. The Lava-Tide Leader unintentionally gained an advantage by consuming Heat, causing her to grow in size. Heatwave tried to intervene but ended up getting seriously injured by the Lava-Tide Leader. Eventually, Kai and Wyldfyre managed to escape with the fake Dragon Core, riding on Heatwave as they retreated to the outskirts of the Lava Wastes.

Jordana informed Ras that the Imperians were consistently led to think that the Wyldness was solely comprised of the Lava Wastes; however, Ras refuted this notion by listing other areas that constitute the Wyldness.
