Welcome to Desamarai
|
Moon Phase
|
Two thousand years ago, there were two gods: Rayzaek, the God of Sun and Isiliah, the Goddess of Moon.
They were, of course, merely humans, humans with strange and unprecedented powers, humans who found each other and bent the whole of Desamarai to worship them.
They were lovers, they were saviors, they were the heralds of a great change, they could not last forever.
In the face of a kingdom falling apart, their love faded and they fought. They fought and retreated to their homelands- Rayzaek to Maikor and the south, Isiliah to Deida and the north. Here they split Desamarai into two, here they forever altered the world as they knew it, here they sewed seeds of discord to grow eternally.
Here they died.
Here they continue to shed blood.

5/18/09 Lyra here! We've had a recent influx of members, which is wonderful. (:
I've just added some new boards for the Isellean and Pyndian Oceans. It's time to sail the high seas, eh? Indulge yourself in underwater towns, sea serpent mating frenzies, human sacrifices and shipwrecks, etc.!
In other news, I'm hoping to start up the plot proper sometime. But I can't until we have some Desarian Royalty and some proper religious leaders. Soooo...

Diyam
This small town is right in between the edge of Chiang Dor and the Adayam Mountains, on an area of reasonably dry ground. It makes money from peat, sending it as far as Maikor and Samaisor. There is a small inn and a small pond nearby that is very romantic at night.

The Fox and Badger Tavern & Inn
This tavern is small and not extremely prosperous. Not many travelers pass through Diyam, only the wanderers, so most of the money comes from the villagers whenever they feel like having something to drink.

The Peat Bogs
Between the Adayam Mountains and Chiang Dor are the Peat Bogs. The peat from them is gathered and dried by local villages, then used as a fuel for fires. Sometimes, a body will turn up, perfectly preserved by the peat.

Mangrove Forests
Where the Kaimbar Swamp meets the ocean, there are mangroves. Tall trees grow out of the water, fish swimming between their roots. There are some mermaids in the eastern mangals- greenish brown creatures that are not as beautiful as their oceanic counterparts.

The Old Battlegrounds
Faded into legends are the wars between the two halves of what is now Desamarai- the Diasins and the Maraisis. They clashed here, just west of the Adayam Mountains, and the spirits still roam at night. Few pass through here, for they fear these ghosts, even if most of them mean no harm.
