Alright, just a few notes here fyi and better understanding of the world around you.
I've made a post about Emirol, so I'm going to give you some of the surrounding areas.
Emirol is located smack dab in the middle of what is known as the Ring of Isles, a group of island kingoms formed out of what is essentially a small tectonic plate.
The ring of Isles is located to the south of Sensec, the Continental Empire. Two peninsulas extend into the circle, forming several islands.
Isles of note (beside Emirol):
Tyrn: This island seems to find its way into everything I write. Tyrn is a merchant city, located just south of the Sensec's largest river. The island is relatively small but is completely dominated by one sprawling city. It is both the richest and poorest city in the world, a sharp divisional contrast exists between the rich and the poor. It is a Monocracy, ruled by a class of merchant princes, who share equal power. Money is the law. If we ever go there officially, I'll go into more detail. Just think Ankh-Morpork and you've got a rough idea.
The Stormshroud Isle: Home of the Warlocks, where Zarnet just got exiled from. Difficult to get to unless They want you to get there.
Cyrn: Emirol is a magical place. No doubt. But Cyrn... cyrn is something special. It is essentially Eyre, ireland, located just off the coast of Emirol. Cyrn is a land where the Sidhe are most present. For some reason, the boundry between the realm of the Fey and that of the mortal realm is weaker there, and often overlap one another.
And of course Sensec: Sensec is a... decrpit place. A place where things have fallen appart, to a great extent. The largest and oldest empire in the known world. Nearly two centuries of war with the barbarian hoards to claim the entire continent has left the land scorched in many locations. They have a vast and mighty millitary, though no will or need to use it. Instead, it has become a paramilitary, a police force seeking out enemies of the empire within the country, and quietly eliminating them. Words have been spoken quietly about a secret organization, a word that many have heard but few know anything about: the Eye. Some rumor that it has spread across the world. Others say it doesn't exist at all. No one will ever know for certain, but those who speak too loudly have all too often been later found guilty of capital crimes, shocking and unexpected, and summarily put to death, marched away by the government's centurions, never to be seen again.
Alright. Discussion is now open. Any questions comments or such like goes here. Have at thee!
