Voxeqar

**Voxeqar** is the world which the setting 'The World of Voxeqar' depicts. The world includes many landmasses, but the perspective of the world (and the setting) is centered around the continent of Itanea. This article, as well as the rest of the Wikia, thus describes the world from an Itanean point of view.

## Itanea

*Main article: Itanea*
Itanea is a big continent, spanning from dry and barren regions in the southwest, to snow-covered mountains in the northeast. It can trace its history thousands of years back, consists of many factions, and is inhabited by a wide variety of races.

## East of Itanea

East of Itanea lies the Sunrise Sea, a vast-spanning ocean known for its treacherous weather.

### The Watercrag Islands

*Main article: Watercrag Islands*
The Watercrag Islands is a small group of isolated islands in the Sunrise Sea. They can, with favorable winds, be reached in less than a week. The climate is temperate, and most of the land is flat and forested. The islands are home to Kallania, a small faction which has been on the islands since 381 AH.

### The Eastern Lands

*Main article: Eastern Lands*
Until the discovery of the Eastern Lands in 771 AH, the Watercrag Islands was known to be the farthest land east. Prior to that, few had dared sailing towards the sunrise, and even fewer returned. The first to successfully cross the Sunrise Sea, and discover the Eastern Lands, was a captain named Alric Callix.

In recent times, trading ships have begun to sail east. The exotic resources of this continent had become a hot commodity in Itanea, and furthermore, native people of the Eastern Lands had begun to travel to Itanea to seek fortune, and many Itanean also traveled to the Eastern Lands to find glory.

Although these intercontinental trading ships are equipped with a stronger hull, the trip is still dangerous, and crossing the Sunrise Sea usually takes around eight to ten weeks.

## South of Itanea

After the discovery of the Eastern Lands, hope for similar discoveries to the south was renewed. Whilst this proved fruitless for many centuries, the captain Adram Radnora discovered several big islands in the Southern Sea in 2490 AH, which he named the Radnora Isles. He found these islands to be inhabited by aggressive human tribes with "skin darker than night".

The islands have both been claimed by Thikor and Ocetan, although the Ocetanish call them the Pearl Isles. However, neither of them have successfully established any settlements on the islands, and they are still inhabited by the original tribes. The islands can be reached in around six weeks, highly depending on the wind conditions.

## West of Itanea

Like the Sunrise Sea and Southern Sea, the Western Ocean have also been subject for many expeditions, although without any luck. Since ancient times, the the west-most point of land is known to be Estidell Island, an island owned by Valrin, which can be reached in around three days by boat.

## North of Itanea

Seafaring in the waters north of Itanea have almost exclusively been in Mercath Bay, since the Icy Sea, located north of the Afalen and Anvil Peninsulas, is stormy and filled with ice half of the year. Even in summer, the waters north of the Anvil Peninsula are known to be perilous, and most ships in Mercath Bay are build there, and never leaves.

Although seemingly unnavigable, a number of expeditions have been conducted in the Icy Sea, and in 237 BH, a dwarven galleon under the command of Dolmun Ironfury discovered mountains in the horizon. However, as soon as the dwarves found these snowy lands to be inhabited by frost giants, they left in all haste. In 876 AH, more than a thousand years after the first expedition, another dwarven expedition lead by Ragtan Oakshield arrived at the Frosty Lands, which the landmass had been known as since the first expedition. This expedition managed to discover and map parts of the southern shores of continent before their presence became known to the frost giants. They were ambushed, and Ragtan only barely managed to escape with a handful of his crew. The extent of the Frosty Lands is unknown, but scholars have suggested that they might be larger than Itanea itself.
