Sephailend

Sephailend is the fictional continent where events of Vaporwaves take place. It's formed by main seven nations, and a hidden eighth one without formal juridiction.

## Nations

### Astracia

Astracia (or Principality of Astracia) was once part of the now called Kingdom of Freyr, but disputes led over to split the regions into two independent nations, causing both of them to lose territories and favors. It has lush forests on its center and swamps on the southwest part of the nation, and a mountain range to the north serves as a natural frontier to Mulmouth on the north. The capital city is called Regenburg, although Gothenstrand is just as important or even more as its portuary city on the west, serving as a merchant hub.

### Freyr

The Kingdom of Freyr was an ancient kingdom which coexisted with Telindrath around Sephailend's beginnings. Its influence dimmed once the Empire's grew, causing schisms with Astracia, who got its independence at high costs for both nations. It is the ancestral home of the Dvalur, what is left of the now extinct dwarven race. In its center there lies a great lake source of their economy and wealth, its capital city, Thorsvik, guarding it at its south coasts.

### Kyros

The Trade Company of Kyros, also named Kyros Alliance, is a confederation formed by independent cities mostly ruled by its wealthy merchant class. It also has an archipelago under its domain. Its inhabitants are comformed by immigrants and refugees of wars throughout the ages from Astracia, Freyr and Telindrath, and it's competing in influence with the wastelands of Mulmouth. Heleia is the capital city, and there are other very important cities along its coasts.

### Mingyun

The Independent Kingdoms of Mingyun, or Mingyun for short, keeps neutral today from the general concerns and technological advances of their neighbours, and keeps anchored on its ancestral monastic traditions of cultivation. They also have their own concerns and conflicts arising throughout their territories. Its capital city is called Qingyuan.

### Mulmouth

The Confederation of Mulmouth is the main responsible for the immense technological revolution the whole Sephailend is confronting these days. Its territory is conformed mainly of a great desert and wastelands, with population reduced to the two main coastal cities, Aetherburg (capital city) and Kenningfort, and a few reducts throughout very secluded places. Airships are the main transport to traverse the desert, even if it is still highly expensive to get passage.

### Revontulet

The Revontulet Dominion, once High Kingdom of Revontulet, is a frigid territory with few resources to draw its wealth. Its inhabitants are very much kept to themselves and very wary of strangers, especially their neighbors from Mingyun and Mulmouth, disputing a salt lake with them in the past. Home of the now extinct Frost Dragons, the giants and the firbolg. Its capital city is Tähtineula.

### Telindrath

The Holy Empire of Telindrath is the most ancient nation, along with Freyr, of Sephailend's history. It is said the cult to dragons comes from there, as Draconic is the main language throughout the territory alongside with Common. Also it is rumored to have witnessed Virseth's birth, and the deity is highly revered in there. Its capital city is Undrith.

### Albor

The Free Territories of Albor hold in a solitary reduct guarded from the rest of the seven nations, at the very border of Telindrath, almost defying its authority. It's where the outcasts and rejects of Sephailend prosper, ignored by all. Piracy thrives there, among other unsavory things.
