Pure Lands is an expression used by the Garou to describe the American continent.
Overview
The Americas were a place where the Pure Ones were able to drove off Wyrm beasts, seal Banes and teach their kin the ways to live in harmony with the Grandmother (things the European Tribes apparently neglected).
The term was first used after the first European Garou arrived with the first white settlers, to differentiate between the native Garou land and that of the strangers. In the Modern Nights, only the Wendigo insist on the name, as a means of separating themselves from the rest of the Garou Nation who, according to the Wendigo, stole their lands.
