Olexios

Olexios, a world shrouded in mystery only mentioned in ancient journals and tomes found within archeological sites throughout the territories of Alaar in the old world of Rathnir.
== Archeological Studies ==
The first mention of this world was noted by [Redacted]. While searching the ruins of the first Alaari Tower, he found several materials that could not be found elsewhere within the world of Rathnir. While [Redacted] never uncovered the name of this other world in his lifetime, other archeologists that came after him began to search the ruins in Alaar as well. Over the years various archeological searches uncovered a series of journals that had appeared in ruins and caverns across the Alay Alaari territories, these journals would later become known as the "Alaari Mythological Series" by future archeologists.
Stovian Tennyth, the researcher that uncovered the void portal underneath the city of Alaar, noted some mysterious reactions while experimenting with the portal. Small and medium sized voids began to open around the Alay Alaari territories which left behind ancient ruins of the Alaari. The most notable of the ruins was known to the Alaari as the "Katamkuai", roughly translated to "The Archives" in Traveler's Tongue. It was believed by Stovian that the Katamkuai was made by the Qilacin tribe. Inside the Katamkuai many Alaari books, tomes as well as relics were discovered. While the majority of the books and tomes could not be translated completely there were many mentions of a different world known as Olexios.
Within a separate set of ruins just North of Alaar, commonly referred to as the "Stomayli Caverns", a set of tomes etched into a non-Rathnirian type of stone were discovered. While the tomes were never fully translated they began to paint a picture of the Alaari Pantheon. It was commonly believed across Rathnir that the Alaari followed a single god known as "Stomyrn". However given the tomes found within the Stomayli Caverns, this belief was discarded by those who knew of the tomes. The pantheon outlined the belief of two distinct sets of deities. The first set known as "Hanayu" described twelve deities that were thought to have been gods. The second set known as "Wæm" described twelve deities that were thought to have been demons.
== Nations ==
Over the years, archeologists studying the ancient Alaari texts made several break throughs. Due to the steadily continued translation of the Alaari language, and with the assistance of several Alaari who had come from Olexios, the texts of the "Ancient Alaari" began to be further interpreted. Given the better understanding of the ancient texts, archeologists began to find patterns within the journals and tomes inside of the Katamkuai.
=== Per Karicrom iku Alaar ===
The nation of the Alaari in their home world of Olexios was translated to be "The Empire of Alaar". Once translated, the scholars researching the Katamkuai found that the empire was spread across six out of the eleven continents. Small maps found within journals and scrolls highlighted a vast array of cities and towns expanded across what was assumed to be the capital region of the empire. The name of the capital itself was never discovered before Iristor's Comet flew above Rathnir. However three cities were identified among the maps and scrolls.
==== Ta'Irem ====
The city of Ta'Irem was identified as the original home of the Tuaylaai tribe. As recalled by Atlas, the city of Ta'Irem was a sprawling metropolis with all manner of people from across the Alaari territories. Several sketches were found depicting a lavish city hidden within what appeared to be a tropical rainforest. Plant life grew on the edge lines of wave shaped structures and the surrounding rainforest was depicted as looming over a towering structure similar to that of a gothic cathedral.
==== Napresi ====
Napresi was a small city located on the cliffside of a mountain. Several translated tomes and journals described a war between the Alaari and a race of short statured mountain dwelling creatures thought to be dwarves. The city of Napresi was thought to have been home to an excessively violent branch of the Yuqra tribe. Depictions of atrocities committed by the tribe were found etched in the walls of a cavern below Vinnyad just north of Alaar. It is believed that the tribe attempted a genocide against the "dwarves" and took up residence within their city after whoever remained had fled.
==== Sacummon ====
While not as intensively studied as the cities of Ta'Irem and Napresi, the small town of Sacummon was described as an immensely mythical place. Sketches were found upon numerous scrolls depicting a small town on the banks of a lake. A large tree was shown growing from the center of the lake with seemingly no land around it. Various complex mechanical creatures were sketched walking around the town or being ridden by the people within Sacummon. Archeologists were unsure of what tribe lived within the town, but it was assumed to likely be the Havanti tribe as they were known on Rathnir to be focused on scientific matters.
=== Other Nations === 
As the research being done into the Alaari home world was being funded by the Alay Alaari government, the "Clahto", texts relating to other nations outside of the empire were heavily controlled. Before the discovery of [Redacted], a small handful of nations were discovered and were approved for minimal amounts of research by the Clahto.
Inokir, a nation of elves just east of the Alaari's home continent, were discovered to have built themselves a series of bridges connecting the islands of an archipelago together. The city state of Ledak was noted to be a major commercial port in the western hemisphere of Olexios. Research on the nation of Illo'rier began and was abruptly stopped by the Clahto after the discovery of its anarchic nature. The same went for the nation of Ostanusk, which was believed to be the "dwarvish" kingdom that narrowly escaped genocide from the Yuqra tribe at the city of Napreshi.
== Geography ==
Very little was ever discovered of the geography within Olexios, but a single map of the world was found spread across a table deep within the Katamkuai that showed eleven distinct continents. The names of the continents remain unknown as the ancient runes could not be translated before Iristor's Comet passed overhead.
