Lagoon Hot Springs

Steaming lagoon inside a white stone ridge, pines for cover, constant steam.

Lagoon Hot Springs first appears in Golden Son as a secluded geothermal retreat nestled within a white-stone ridge, its constant steam and pine cover providing both privacy and natural camouflage. Though the series only explicitly references the site in this single volume, its introduction marks a rare moment of respite amid escalating political violence, hinting at the hidden natural sanctuaries that survive even in the hyper-engineered worlds of the Society. The location’s brief but vivid depiction underscores the tension between the Society’s artificial hierarchies and the enduring power of unaltered landscapes.
