Its surface ripples with prismatic hues of violet, silver, and azure, emitting a soft, pulsating glow that bathes the world in a dreamlike light. At its core, a faint silhouette of a celestial harp can be seen during eclipses, hinting at its divine origin.
Aetherworks Bastion
Perched on its own floating gear-shaped platform to the north, the Aetherworks Bastion is the industrial and defensive stronghold of Skywhistle Haven, accessible only by flight or the city’s skybridges. Here, the city’s lifeblood—arcane energy and steam—are harnessed and maintained by teams of gnome engineers and Aetherfeather Tinkerflight Owlin. Towering turbines, glowing liftstones, and intricate arrays of pipes and gears dominate the landscape, their rhythmic churning and hissing a constant reminder of the city’s reliance on technology and magic. The Bastion’s core is a radiant tower housing the main aetheric reactor, its runes pulsing with blue-green light. Around it, barracks and training fields host the elite Skyguard, ever vigilant against threats from above and below. Workshops and foundries line the edges, producing everything from skycraft parts to defensive automatons. The air here is charged with energy, the ground vibrating with the heartbeat of the city.

Caelyraeth
Caelyraeth is the celestial fulcrum of all divine existence, a timeless nexus where the gods’ essences converge in harmonic unity. Not a realm but a state of pure being, it manifests as a radiant lattice of golden threads, pulsing with the multiverse’s heartbeat.

Mortals cannot fathom its dimensionless expanse, where every thought reverberates as a cosmic law, binding the 13 Dominions in eternal balance.
Cindaruun

Once a thriving coastal dominion, Cindur-Kaeth is now a haunting landscape of brackish waters and drowned forests, where the skeletal remains of submerged cities rise eerily from the depths. The tides here move with an unnatural rhythm, influenced by forgotten rites and the whispers of storm-priests, while abandoned shrines cling to barnacled cliffs, and glowing fungi illuminate the salt-choked catacombs beneath.
Civitas Inferni: Urbs Daemonica

Its architecture of black stone and molten iron towers over labyrinthine streets, illuminated by red lights and wafting sulfurous fumes. Governed by a Council of Demons, the city thrives on a strict hierarchy where lesser beings serve the powerful.

Dûrmhadrûn, the Citadel of Brownsteel
Dûrmhadrûn, the Citadel of Brownsteel Carved into the heart of Mount Vharûndrak, Dûrmhadrûn was the pinnacle of dwarven engineering and a symbol of a long-extinct golden age. Its entrance is a wall etched with runes of living basalt, guarded by colossal sentinels that once moved under the command of the royal voice. Endless halls of carved granite and columns veined with mithril support an underground metropolis filled with living forges, council chambers, and halls of crowns. At its height, Dûrmhadrûn minted enchanted iron coins, controlled the mineral routes of the Tharozan Mountain Range, and stored artifacts from prehistoric eras. But its downfall came under the fire of Varthugal, the Ruin-of-Selhas, a cataclysmic wyrm drawn to the magical vibrations of the Brownsteel forges. Unable to contain it, the dwarves sealed the gates with sacrifice-bound seals, turning Dûrmhadrûn into a living crypt.

Elarien Thorne is a realm of primeval forests, luminous swamplands, and mist-shrouded hills where nature reigns absolute and unforgiving. Once colonized by an extinct lineage of arcanobotanists, the land still bears ivy-swallowed towers, living reliquaries, and sentient trees that remember forgotten ages. The soil pulses with primal energy, and earthbound spirits walk beneath the moonlight.

Grubnash Hollow
Grubnash Hollow is a hidden goblin starting village nestled in a mossy ravine beneath tangled roots and towering fungi. Built from scavenged wood, beast bones, and discarded scrap, it may look chaotic—but it works. Surrounded by ramshackle palisades and cloaked in fungal fog, it lies deep within the Murkroot Thicket, a swampy, overgrown land reclaimed from ancient battles. Around 80 goblins live here—mostly crafters, mushroom farmers, and scavengers—thriving through trade, trickery, and curious contraptions. Grubnash Hollow hums with ramshackle energy and a strange, self-made order only its residents truly understand.
Hiraeth’Arden
High plateaus and frozen pine barrens, haunted by lingering spirits of a civilization that chose exile over conquest. Ghost-roads crisscross frostbitten hills where frost druids and revenant paladins walk alone. The land is mostly inland but fed by glacial melt into the Verdantstorm Ocean. Auroras whisper forgotten songs overhead. Isolation here is sacred, and oracles speak only in dreams of wind and shattered mirrors.
Icelorn Shards
The Icelorn Shards (Isles Beneath the Frozen Veil) Nestled within the treacherous heart of the Glimmerfrost Ocean, the Icelorn Shards are a fractured archipelago of jagged frost-bound isles, where midnight sun and eternal twilight wage silent war. Encased in permafrost and veiled in blinding sea-mist, these islands are remnants of an ancient glacial cataclysm said to have shattered the sky and carved the sea into mirrors. The few who dwell there—the Naeruun Seers—believe time is slower in Icelorn, frozen between breaths. Star-crystals bloom in the ice, singing with ghostlight when the aurora crowns the heavens. Strange relics surface after every thaw, hinting at an age when gods drowned and the sea turned to glass. Most captains steer clear. But the brave or desperate may seek the Veilspire, the largest isle, rumored to be hollow and whispering.

Inland, terraced highlands rise into volcanic ridges where obsidian monoliths hum with primal energy. Thaurissan is sacred to storm-spirits, and its people whisper to the dead in rites older than any known kingdom. Once a bastion of a forgotten empire, its descendants now live in scattered sky-huts and bone-pillared sanctuaries, guided by dream-seers and tide-oracles. The isle is rumored to hold one of the last Resonant Wells — deep fountains of unfiltered magic buried beneath the world's crust, accessible only through blood-oaths and celestial alignments.

This rugged highland holds the Sky-Forge Peaks, home to obsidian dwarves, magma-forged titans, and echoing tunnels from pre-Draconic Wars. Sparse rainfall and a thin veil of air make life here hard, but rich veins of umbralite and celestial stone fuel subterranean economies. Highland nomads ride stonewyrms across shifting plateaus. Seismic instability is common, and legends speak of a heartfire slumbering beneath the world's crust — the breath of a chained titan-god.
Lunareth’s Hollow
Lunareth’s Hollow is a somber realm of fractured moons and shattered thrones, orbiting Caelyraeth as a shadowed veil. Dim, silvery light bathes its desolate expanse, where forgotten gods and exiled deities wander in eternal reflection.

Here, time is a stagnant pool, and the air hums with unspoken regrets, a sanctuary for those erased from divine history, their voices lost to the void.

The houses, built of light stone and polished wood, are adorned with amber glass lanterns and colorful silk ribbons, creating a magical ambiance, especially at night when thousands of lights float over the river.
Maelshore Expanse
At the heart of eastern Cindur-Kaeth lies the Maelshore Expanse, a haunted maritime region where compasses fail and stars vanish. A permanent cyclone swirls above the Hollow Sea, an abyssal sink where countless fleets have vanished. Rifts in the veil shimmer above the waves, and ghostships drift silently beside leviathans of coral and bone. Time fractures, magic convulses, and no chart remains stable for long, making it a perilous domain for adventurers.
Mire of Whispers
The Mire of Whispers is a haunting swamp, perpetually veiled in thick fog and ancient magic. Its terrain is dominated by stagnant, murky waters winding through massive fungi and gnarled roots. The air is damp with decay, and bioluminescent mushrooms cast eerie glows, piercing the mist. Spectral creatures and mutated beasts haunt the land, their presence revealed by flickering eyes or subtle rustling. Time and space distort here, disorienting travelers with the swamp’s twisted magic. The canopy above creates an eternal twilight, blocking much of the sun’s light.

The air is heavy with finality, and every echo fades into oblivion. Here, death is not torment but release, a sacred transition where all things return to the quiet of nonexistence.
Myr'Daenor
A fertile basin carved by ancient rivers and sprawling valleys. It serves as Elarith’s breadbasket and heartland of dynastic contention.
