Ane Dorai

Ane Dorai is a continent set between the Gallenray and Redmeny seas. It was the first land made by the Zae gods.

As Ane Dorai began to blossom, the gods created more lands for their humans to explore, raising other continents from the oceans.  Now, due to natural disasters and human free will, Ane Dorai has separated into 9 independently ruled kingdoms.  The kingdoms of Ane Dorai tend to stick to their own continent, rarely interacting with neighboring lands.  Ane Dorai has seen many hardships in its multiple eras of existence, but it remains the most prosperous land on Eraden since the beginning of time.

### The Nine Kingdoms

#### **Thelrendell**

[th-el-ren-dell]

The heart of Ane Dorai.  A mostly dry climate, Thelrendell has "perfect" weather all year, until you get higher in the mountains.  Arguably the most beautiful land in the continent, Thelrendell features magnificent fields, vast wildlife, and sparkling cities.  The western side of the land opens to the Gallenray sea, making it a large trading hub for other continents.  Trades include furs, silver, various gems, jewelry, elegant clothing, and silk. Thelrendell shares a north eastern border with Mogroth, an eastern border with Eridor, separated by the small Lediac sea, and a south western border with Rymlin.  Unofficially seen as the “capital” of the continent.  Generally liked by all other lands, but has an uneasy relationship with Eridor. Ruled by a hierarchical monarchy.

**Capital City:** Vasillia

**Other Major Cities:**

* Aeribell, Novamost, Palona, Sonaham, Aeria

**Colors:** Dark red and silver

**Flag:** Three horizontal lines, Red-Silver-Red.  On the silver is a glass rose.

**Current Leader:** Queen Malone Magralai

#### **Eridor**

[ear-eh-door]

Home to the best farmlands in Ane Dorai, one can never go hungry in Eridor.  The second largest land in the continent, Eridor boasts rocky beaches on the Bencaster sea in the south, beautiful and bountiful farmlands, breezy flower fields, and lush forests with majestic views of the Verwitch mountains to the north west.  While the winters get cold due to their northern position, the climate in Eridor is comfortable for most of the year.  In addition to farming, Eridor has a large textiles trade.  Main exports include produce, specifically apples (everyone craves Eridor apples), wool, cotton, and glass.  Eridor shares a western border with Thelrendell, separated by the small Lediac sea, a north western border with Mogroth, and a northern border with Asonas.  The rulers of the land historically have short tempers, which has caused riffs between most lands with Eridor.  However, Eridor has the strongest army in Ane Dorai, and many rely on their exports and resources, so the other lands know better than to get on Eridor’s bad side.

**Capital City:** Leroi

**Other Major Cities:**

* Brea, Taillis, Newray, Kelelin, Ossinian, Moyen

**Colors:** Violet and Gold

**Flag**: Solid Violet purple with a golden nine ray sun

**Current Leader:** King Hedrick Raoliss

#### **Asonas**

[A-sohn-ahs]

Creating the northern border of Ane Dorai, Asonas features a brutally cold climate.  Sharing a similar terrain to Mogroth, farming is almost impossible in Asonas, having to import most produce from neighboring Eridor.  Asonas is a haven for knowledge and education.  Home to an ancient library, aspiring scholars all over the world travel to Asonas to learn its deepest secrets.  Main export is educational texts.  Asonas shares a north eastern border with Mogroth, and a southern border with Eridor, and the rest is surrounded by the icy Ellis sea. Ruled by the Grand Master of the library.

**Capital City:** Kirjasto

**Other Major Cities**

* Valski, Oppia, Pandorys

**Colors:** Dark Green, Light blue, and yellow

**Flag:** Light blue with yellow eagle wings

**Current Leader:** Grand Master Lazziar Miradove

#### **Rymlin**

[ry-mm-lin]

Home to murky swamps and marshes, Rymlin is one of the most vial places in Ane Dorai.  Don’t expect to leave Rymlin with everything you came with, the land is littered with thieves and criminals.  The world’s greatest assassins and thieves have come out of Rymlin.  The rich soil in Rymlin makes it a great place for plant life, hosting the flora that makes some of the deadliest poisons, but also some of the most powerful healing potions.  Rymlin is a peninsula, sharing only a northern border with Thelrendell.  The country used to be part of Thelrendell, but declared independence approximately 300 years ago. The count of their capital county acts as their ruler.

**Capital City:** Palude

**Other Major Cities:**

* Jezex, Thornpoint, Voz, Amrix

**Colors:** Black and Silver

**Flag:**  Solid black with silver 12 point star

**Current Leader:** Count Taliesin Glynhorn

#### **Mogroth**

[Mohg-rowth]

Northern most land in Ane Dorai.  Harshly cold climate.  Southern border is lined with the mineral rich Verwitch Mountains. Northern border is the icy Ellis sea.  Used to be part of Asonas, but was conquered by Eridor, then Thelrendell, then back to Asonas, and then became its own land. This land is often void of visitors due to yearlong harsh conditions.  Rocky landscape makes farming almost impossible, so the inhabitants’ diet mainly consists of fish.  Due to its small population, the inhabitants have assembled as a tribe, and are led by their tribe master.

**Capital City:** Selo

**Other Major Cities:**

* Plodovi, Vargai

**Colors:** Blue and Tan

**Flag:** Dark blue with a wolf looking up at a shooting star

**Current Leader:** Tribe Master Winn Hegala

#### **Sheaserin**

[shay-sehr-en]

Sheaserin was once merged with Wheaserin as the land of Ellanas.  King Serin of Ellanas had twin sons, and died before he could pick which would take his place.  Instead of picking between them, the two sons, Whea Serin and Shea Serin, split the land equally and each ruled their own half of the land. Like the twins, the lands are identical in climate, terrain, and crafts.  The land is a warm tropical forest, with lots of wildlife.  Due to the large number of wildlife, locals are often on alert in fear of being attacked.  Having to fight the wildlife has caused Sheaserin to be the home of some of the best hunters in the continent.  Their largest trade is meat, weapons, and leather.  Locals claim the steel is sharper in Sheaserin than Wheaserin.  Sheaserin is directly south of Eridor, and takes approximately one week to travel by boat. Ruled by a Hierarchical monarchy

**Capital City:** Sellanas

**Other Major Cities:**

* Sevel, Saffen, Sald, Shealen

**Colors:** Dark Green and Light Orange

**Flag:** Solid dark green. Left side is half of a shield, right side is the profile of a stenciled stag.

#### **Wheaserin**

[way-sehr-en]

Wheaserin was once merged with Sheaserin as the land of Ellanas.  King Serin of Ellanas had twin sons, and died before he could pick which would take his place.  Instead of picking between them, the two sons, Whea Serin and Shea Serin, split the land equally and each ruled their own half of the land.  Like the twins, the lands are identical in climate, terrain, and crafts. Wheaserin, like Sheaserin, is home to some of the greatest hunters in the continent.  Their largest trade is meat, weapons, and leather.  Locals claim the meat tastes better in Wheaserin than Sheaserin.  Wheaserin is directly south of Eridor, and takes approximately one week to travel to by boat. Ruled by a hierarchical monarchy.

**Capital City:** Wellanas

**Other Major Cities:**

* Wevel, Waffen, Wald, Whealen

**Colors:** Light orange and dark green

**Flag:** Bright Orange. Left side is the profile of a stenciled stag.  Right side is a shield.

**Current Leader:** King Rabin Serin

#### **Islelune**

[eye-el-lune]

The smallest land in Ane Dorai, Islelune often gets mistaken as being part of Sheaserin.  A largely tropical environment, Islelune thrives on tourism.  Located on a reef, Islelune has access to multiple unique species of fish and water fauna.  The climate also is ideal for various tropical fruits, making it a hub for bar crafting.  The north hosts a large port for tourists, housing multiple food stalls and dining opportunities.  They do not have an official ruler, but when it comes to politics, the Trajor family steps up due to owning the most properties on the island. It is its own separate island, but Sheaserin is visible from the northern shores.

**Capital City:** Manawa

**Other Major Cities**

* Inu, Lalo

**Colors:** Tropical blue and bright orange

**Flag:** Tropical blue with colorful flying parrot

**Current Leader:** Representative Beme Trajor

#### **Ulmrion**

[Uhl-mm-ree-on]

Far to the south of Rymlin, and far west of Islelune, most people forget Ulmrion exists, and probably for the better.  Built on the remains of a volcano, Ulmrion is full of ash and smog.  The inhabitants, having lived there for so long, they have developed gray hues to their skin due to the ash in the air.

**Capital City:** Kazan

**Other Major Cites:**

* Breywich, Sonasi

**Colors:** Indigo and black

**Flag:** Dark blue with a silver crescent moon, surrounded by the eye of the divines symbol
