The Wickan Encampments begin in Deadhouse Gates as modest clusters of hide tents and horse herds pitched beside the Seventh’s main camp, serving as the first visible sign of the Wickan presence in the Malazan Empire’s campaigns. Across the series they evolve from peripheral staging grounds into politically charged spaces where Wickan leaders negotiate, mourn, and ultimately challenge imperial authority. Their shifting fortunes mirror the Wickan people’s journey from reluctant allies to embattled exiles and, finally, to a people reclaiming autonomy on their own plains.
