Draconia & Gnome'lore, the Territories of the Dragons and Gnomes
The entire territory, when seen by outsiders, is commonly referred to as only one thing; 'paradise'. The water is clear and blue and the forests are green with life. Everyone lives in peace under the great Dragon King Erech. There are mountain ranges in the southeast, north and west, but they are not harsh like most others in Terrastra. They are abundant with crops and fruits of all kinds and are protected and cared for by Dragons and Gnomes alike.
The land is covered in rivers, edible plant life and all kinds of other rare and valuable materials. There are no ports and the coast are heavily patrolled by dragons who specialize in the water.
The climate is mild all year round and they rarely have unpleasantly strong wind like their surrounding neighbors due to their walls.
1. Shrine of Aboshan, God of Knowledge is located just west of the Golden city.
2. Shrine of Tibbit Duril, God of Mischief is located between Gnome-hus and Gnome-for.
3. Hailwan Wall, nearly fifty feet high and approximately 7 feet thick. It is reinforced by both magik, craft and scout. It is made of the strongest metals and has spears pointed outward from it to repel would-be attackers. On its top patrol some of the smaller, but no less fierce, of the dragon species with all of the latest Gnome inventions.
4. Golden City, is THE most grand city in Terrastra. Its entirety is made of gold, ladamine, and other such rare materials that make it glow even from a distance. The halls are big enough to fit most other Kingdoms inside of it. But only because the King of the dragons must be able to walk around freely amongst the buildings.
5. Hallow Camp, a small training town for young Dragons that is located in the far west of the territory.
6. Gnome-grun, is the most northeastern city in Gnomelore. It is host to the Gnome Elect when he is elected.
7. Gnome-hus, is the city in the middle of the other two cities and head of research. They conduct all kinds of experiments and pump out inventions by the handful from here.
8. Gnome-for, is the most western city and is home to most of the grunt workers. They mostly just manufacture and process chemicals and materials for the other cities to work with.
9. Dungalef Mountains, northern mountains - These mountains were considered part of Luin before the lines were drawn and the wall built. Originally the dragons had to kill off all the demons still in their lands and living in the mountains there but some say the dragons cut the borders to their lands where they did, not because they loved the mountains or for security to their city, but because there were gem mines and gold mines littering the southern half of the mountains.
10. Ezelivrin Mountain Range, south eastern mountains. These mountains were the original cut off spot of Gnome'lore and Draconia.
11. Suruli Mountains, westernmost mountains of Draconia. These shorter mountains are used mainly for training young dragons to fly and climb. The Hallow Camp was settled just below them for this purpose.
