Been going crazy with getting things put together recently and I've finally made a map of the world :] there's a ton of lore surrounding it so feel free to ask any questions about a specific nation or just the world in general

I'll list each nation+their capital one just in case stuff is too hard to read:

-Kyronil, Fotial

-The Harrowinds, Yorzin

-Helgesh, Rotsine

-Denekun, Mondurgol(not technically a nation and not technically a capital but. You know)

-Etharail

-Ke'toreth, Torinth

-Kestoril, I'beys

-Morthil, Orgira, The Eye Of Qeth

-Zowlind, O'elin

-Pagonris, Glys Haven

-Hasahvnah, Mogron

-Rinhalt, I'lgoss

new room :)

Since we’re a few posts into this; The Feylands is a continent! I’d personally say it’s larger than Australia- or a little bit more I’m not good at sizes.

And it has a map! That I’ve redraw 3 times over the years!

Some features on the map are up for changes, like City markers being more prominent and caves/ being spruced up. There are tons of little spots around that are a bit too small to place- small ponds and streams and so.

the planet I made up

since I'm planning on talking about my original world/story/characters on here, I should probably introduce the actual world where the story/characters belong first. so, here is a little bit about the planet Kirotar...

(I drew this map myself by hand, for the record, no map-making tools. it took a while.)

this is Kirotar (at least, in the beginning). it's a bit smaller than Earth and has eight little moons. one day there is around 72 hours on Earth.

as shown, there are four major continents and lots of islands in-between them. to the east is Safimatet, the desert continent, to the south is Besilyon, the jungle continent, to the west is Tovapikus, the taiga continent, and to the north is Ramocesin, the grasslands continent. (also, please notice the compass at the bottom-right of the map; it's aligned differently than what's typical for maps on Earth.)

fun fact: each of the continents is actually named after the Kirotaran god that resides over it.

this planet is inhabited by several fictional humanoid species I've made (twelve, to be exact), but I'll talk about those individually later. as of current development, there are a variety of plants and animals living there that aren't too different from those on Earth. overall, Kirotar looks very similar to Earth, but there are plenty of differences.

for example, a form of magic exists on Kirotar, which is often used by humans (and sometimes even animals). my story has elements of fantasy, but also a lot of magical realism. the system I've made for magic will also get its own post another time.

I hope that's a sufficient introduction. more to come soon.
