Locations

This article explains the different kingdoms of Eloria, a list of all cities can be found here.

## Artan

The general Artan area is a large grassland area. There are many ruins where battles took place during the Great War. There is a large monument in tribute to those who lost their lives during the war in the center of the area. Vocessa have some small villages in the area where the old, young, and infirm live.

## Cephaloid

Cephaloid appears to be made up a series of small tropical islands, but this is not the case. Cephaloid territory is actually much larger since its made up of a massive network of underwater caves. The islands just happen to be the tops of the caves that peek out above the water. Most islands have entrances into the cave networks on or near them. Most races believe the Cephaloids live on and around the islands, when in fact they live inside and they try to keep this secret, using the islands as a convenient location to meet up with other races. The actual cave networks are filled with Cephaloid cities filled with large structures made of coral and seashells and lit by all sorts of bio-luminescent plants.

## Chronnac

Chronnac is a somewhat diverse region with a few mountains (one of which is a volcano), wetlands, some forest and even some tundra. There are hives of Chronnacs in each location, but generally far enough away form each other that they don't interact. Chronnac hives can be dangerous. If you accidentally interfere with them or make them think you are a danger to the hive, they will turn aggressive and you could be dealing with an army of Chronnacs coming after you.

## Dark Continent

The dark continent is where Phira sealed Shallyx after the War of Decreation. There isn't much there.

## Deatalie

Deatalie is a rather large area considering the Deatalies don't have a full society the way other races do. The Deatalies live in small villages of 20-30 and act like young children always running around and just generally having fun. There are a number of fey creatures in this area of the forest which protect and care for the Deatalies. The area hasn't been conquered due to these creatures protection as well as the Diron and Sivanoids protecting them from the Vichian who don't focus on the area since they don't see it as necessary conquest since it will come for free if they take Diron and Sivanoid. The area is mostly forests with a few portals to the fey wild which come and go sporadically.

## Diron

Diron is a large very dense forest. The Diron have villages in clearings using the forest itself as a defense mechanism. Diron villages tend to have large wall like structures around disguised as trees which makes their villages hard to find and highly defensible.

## Durnesh

Durnesh is a mountainous region. The entire area is basically one large mountain range. There are a number of individual Chronnacs that have left their hives in the area too. Most villages are on the mountains with a few in specific valleys that won't flood when snow melts.

## Duvin

Duvin is not actually a the area above ground, but instead the area below ground. Duvin is a series of tunnels and caves with cities built into the side of the caves. Due to this, Its hard to navigate the area without wings. Above ground in this area is Yggdrasil, the tree of life. Yggdrasil is the sacred location of Phira and the tree is so large it takes a large portion of the area above ground. Below ground, is where the Duvin worship Phira, the roots of Yggdrasil.

## Geeraka

Gerraka does not appear on any map. It is an area where the Geeraka live consisting of most of the underground areas of the continent except Duvin. Only the Geeraka live in the area and no one else has ever been there. Its basically made entirely of rock.

## Genine

Genine is a giant desert that takes up a large portion of Ancient Eloria. The area is nearly impossible to navigate due to sandstorms and a mount that can handle the desert is necessary to get across it. There are multiple ancient ruins throughout the area. Genine cities tend to have large walls around them and usually have coverings to prevent sandstorms from rolling through the cities.

## Sivanoid

Sivanoid is part of the same forest that Diron and Deatalie are in. The area of the forest where the Sivanoids live more sparse than the Diron area. Sivanoid cities are built in the trees as a series of tree houses in the tops of the higher trees which allows them to get the drop on enemies in the area.

## Vasum

The Vasum kingdom is more urban the others. They live in large cities that are impressive since they are entirely carved out of one piece of stone. Streets, buildings, houses, everything are all built together, carved out of the same single stone. The rest of the area is basically grasslands and swamp.

## Vichian

Vichian is not an area anyone else chooses to go to. The Vichian are war mongers and conquerors. They live mostly in barren caves that they have dug out of the rock. They have entire hives inside of the cave networks and no outsider who enters them ever leaves. It is assumed that the king lives at the heart of these caves, though where that is is unknown.

## Umanite

The Umanite area is interesting as it was probably once cliff faces and outlaying islands. The Umanites are absolutely brilliant and once they decide on a course of action can almost always succeed. The area is now a giant artificial construct with a central area surrounded by towers. It is am impressive feat of engineering and is possibly the only area of Ancient Eloria that has magic so advanced.
