It is a temperate climate. The Athyrian people are pioneers and settlers. The capital city of Chalis rises up with white marble towers from the Western Plateau, where it looks down on the famed Four-City Crossing.

The people of the kingdom of Sunaria are hunters and travelers. Sunarian lion-riders patrol the edges of the kingdom and keep out the eastern raiders from the devastated Argoth. In Sunaria, as in Vanadryn, beasts can grow to fantastical sizes, and migrating animals can see things in the savannas that eyes cannot. Some predators come from darker places than the shadows.

The denser jungles stretch out from under the shadow of the Great Wall. Overgrown and dense with thick foliage, webs of hanging vines, carnivorous plants and giant, prehistoric reptiles abound. Thus, many ancient secrets lost to time lie in wait still, undisturbed since the world-breaking cataclysm. From the top of the Great Wall and down toward the sea, the steamy Zamonian rainforest houses extravagant collages of outlandish wildlife, competing feline tribes, and secrets of nature all intermingle in this tapestry of tropical flora and fauna. So vast and so varied are the environments blossoming within the rainforests that the secrets those strange and wonderful plants and animals may carry draw many a bold and daring adventurer.

A few settlements line the coast, fewer still can be found on the isles. Pirates appear and vanish in the fogs of the Bogsea, and even when not tempestuous, the murky waters can be deceivingly deadly. Even deadlier still what lies deep below..

Here the Mishuran have delved out a life of peace and with respect for their home and what lies within. From the forests of Naikaze and Emarudo to the Yoshidan Plain and the hills of Evervale - this oriental realm is shrouded in mysticism and rich with ancient secrets.

The Morduans themselves live mostly in marshy forest towns in Morvolon and caravan across the Spitwater. Drudging through muck and slime, especially in the colder areas, gives this kingdom a somber and sardonic mood.

This dark corner of the world is seldem spoken about, and rarely, if ever, visited. What was once a great empire of magical prowess - turned to shadowbleeding and corrupted the entire realm. Isenvegg is bogged down in murderous history, mired with forbidden pacts and blood sacrifice... It is the frozen graveyard of a lost civilization, cursed and forgotten.

The western Rimvald Mountains are home to the drumdar and their mighty fortress of Thord. East, in the wooded hills of Draugnir rove the ravenous lycans. Frosted whispers hint at a snow demon, an icy beast, lurking out in the Jarkala Sea, at the bottom of the world.

Ystarya is magica crafted realm of mystery, intrigue and ancient enchantments. Magica was unleashed from a well, in not too distant history, that has permeated the southeastern edges of Lyrus with an icy kaleidoscope of illusion. Few things are what they seem and what appears to be dreamlike can come suddenly and nightmarishly hostile. Word to the wise, tread carefully in Ystarya.

Western Turinites are primarily nomadic, as are the aradar, who travel and trade in caravans between the cities and across the parched deserts of Aridesh. Further south lie in the broken lands of Dirthrim.
