The World of Irilia

## Overview

The world of Irilia is the planet on which the Eternal Chronicle takes place, along with all of the adventures that have taken place.

## Notable Landmasses

### Ibira

Ibira is the central continent on Irilia, and is the smallest of the two continents on the planet. It is bordered by the Sunstone Sea to the east, Barstall Sea to the west, Frostfall Sea to the north and Ashsea Abyss to the south. The large island of Oceon lies off the western Ibiran coast. Ibira is split into a northern and southern half by The Belt, an isthmus that serves as a crucial strategic point allowing for trade.

### Ephia

Ephia is the second continent on Irilia, and is significantly larger than Ibira. It borders the same bodies of water as its smaller counterpart with the exception of The Waveless Waters to its north, and has the large islands of Coslen, Otes and The Pearl Islands off its coast. Due to the Great Divide, the massive mountain range splitting Ephia in half, the continent is often referred to as Eastern and Western Ephia, as the mountains have led to vastly different climates and cultures developing.

### Kastros and Kairos

Kastros and Kairos are the north and south poles of Irilia, and are locked in ice year round. Along the coast of Kastros the tundra is capable of habitation, however the extreme climate and lack of natural resources makes Kastros a place only those who want to be left alone reside. Kairos, on the other hand is coated in thick snowdrifts and ice all year, and settlement is foolhardy if not completely suicidal.

## Islands

Irilia is home to a large number of islands, all of which, save for a few, are populated. For brevity, the major islands of Irilia will be presented in a list:

* Alfios
* Brimack Cay
* Coslen
* Crystal Archipelago
* The Daggers
* Emis
* Jade Isle
* Macanet Islands
* Oceon
* Otes
* Penton Isle
* The Pearl Islands
* The Scorched Isles
* The Sisters
* Ulfios

## Oceans

### Ashsea Abyss

The Ashsea Abyss is the southernmost ocean on Irilia, and is the coldest body of water on the planet. Strong ocean currents cause powerful and violent storms, which have led to this body of water being almost universally feared by sailors across the globe.

### Barstall Sea

The Barstall Sea serves as the trade route between the Ibiran nations and the clans and empires of the west, this makes this sea the busiest on Irilia. Countless trade ships pass on the Barstall sea-lanes every week, fueling the global economy. Its large connection to both the Ashsea Abyss and Frostfall Sea makes the wasters of the Barstall Sea rather cold and not enjoyable for most swimmers.

### Frostfall Sea

The Frostfall Sea is Irilia's northern arctic sea, warmer than the Ashsea Abyss but not by much. Its frigid waters are by far the calmest on the planet though, and its crystal clear depths and frequent snow flurries make sailing the northern waters an experience most won't forget.

### The Sunstone Sea

The Sunstone Sea sits between Ibira and Eastern Ephia, its small inlets to other waterways make The Sunstone warm year round. Large cities along the coast are popular international tourist destinations, as the clean and temperate waters are perfect for swimming. Trade is less common on this oceans' waters due to the less developed nations in Eastern Ephia, but some trade hubs exist nonetheless.

### The Waveless Waters

The Waveless Waters is a small sea north of Eastern Ephia that is sheltered by nearby islands and landmasses from most major weather patterns. This results in smooth seas, not as calm as those in the Frostfall Sea but calm enough. The isolated location of The Waveless Waters is a popular location for green sailors to learn the trade.
