The Great Ocean

The Great Ocean encompasses the Astrellus continent, and the easternmost and northernmost of the Errachus expanse and the Sacaaran continents respectively.

## The Dawn Sea

*(Main page: Dawn Sea)*

The Dawn Sea region refers to the Southern edge of the Eldermaign Empire and the surrounding waters. The most prominent settlement of this region is the city of Star Harbour, which stands as the entrance to the Astrellus inland sea that flows to the imperial capital of Eldria.

The Empire Trading Company (ETC) is the major faction in this region. Headquartered in Star Harbour, the Company enjoys exclusive trade rights in the west due to an Imperial Charter by the Empire. This has allowed it to grow massive power and influence at sea, including a privatized fleet that patrols its trade routes and manages the Empire’s oversea colonies in Sacaara. Adventuring crews may pick up bounties placed by the Empire Trading Company to eliminate pirates or monsters that may interfere with their business.

Adventurers can sail in the Dawn Sea to explore fantastical islands, complete contracts to hunt pirates, hunt monstrous sea creatures, and fend off deep sea raiders from small island towns.

## The Siren Sea

The Siren Sea surrounding the lands of Argolia is a region of myth and legend. Ancient city states dot the rocky peninsulas and archipelagos of these warm and stormy waters. The two most are the democratic city of Eonia, and the proud Kingdom of Thiscion, who frequently war over opposing philosophies. Mythical sea monsters ravage the island nations, and ancient temples hide long forgotten mysteries. The dense jungles of Sacaara lie to the south, tribes of beastmen and monstrous folk inhabit the ruins of empires of old.

The city of Eonia is carved from the rocky cliff shores, it is a city of master craftsmen, the most famous is said to be Dimos a master inventor who’s machinations are said to be almost magical.

Thiscion, ruled by the hero-king Helladios IV, is a kingdom chasing to regain the status it once held in its mythic past. Thiscion also houses one of the greatest libraries and fonts of knowledge in the world, the Athenaeum.

Adventurers sail the Siren Seas to embark on an odyssey, questing across the sea to battle mythical monsters, traveling down into the undersea cities of the peaceful merfolk or raid the sunken strongholds of the ravenous Sahuagin, and explore the ruins of ancient temples on lost islands or in the dark jungles of Sacaara.

## The Sea of Wine

The seas off the Oleiros continent are ruled by Duchess Rosana I of Almeria, the sovereign of the Grand Duchy of Almeria. The Grand Duchy is currently in conflict with the Empire over trade and land disputes with the Empire Trading Company. Skirmishes with ETC Marine warships are increasingly common.

Countless pirates profit from pilfering the ships heavy with trade between Errachus, Almeria, and the Empire. The proud Almerian nobles vie for power by secretly hiring these pirate crews to sabotage their rivals, as well as conducting targeted strikes against the ETC. Publicly the Duchy maintains a stance against the pirates that scourge their home waters.

Adventurers can sail the warm tropical waters of the Wine Sea to hunt down pirates, explore the vast Olerian rainforest for lost treasures, engage in the intrigue and sabotage of the Duchy’s court, choose to steal from the corrupt nobility, or gain terrible infamy as a pirate crew.
