The Empire of the Tumultuous Swell

The Empire of the Tumultuous Swell is the name of a mythical empire, supposedly located in the northern reaches of Oryndiil, beyond the Agatoran Sea. The existence of the realm is based on stories brough back by sailors of a vast land, rich beyond wildest imagining, and populated by colossal men with alabaster skin and flame-red eyes. However, to this day, no expedition has found evidence of the land, and it is presumed to be a story, such as the old Casorian legend of Ajikai'i. 
The stories of the Tumultuous Swell are oddly consistent, a fact attributed to the age of the legend. It is said to be ruled by a giant warrior, twenty feet tall, who rides on the back of a titanic Thornscale. He supposedly rules from a palace decorated in gemstones found nowhere else in the world, and constructed from sheer obsidian slabs. The cities of the empire are said to be huge and pristine, with the homes of even the lowliest stablehand being constructed from marble and fine wood. 
The stories of the empire have led to numerous fortune seekers launching expeditions in search of it over the centuries. However, all have either returned empty handed, or have been claimed by the murderous storms of the Agatoran.
