If you are reading this then you are but a step away from the wonderful world of Corone. In many ways Corone can be imagined as the jack-of-all-trades when it comes to the land itself, for its diversity has nearly no boundaries. However, as it is with jacks-of-all-trades (skilled with all, masters of none), none of these hallmarks could be considered extreme. The winds can be harsh, but not quite as harsh as the ones in Salvar. The mountains are tall but not like those that stand between Raiaera and Alerar. The ale is bitter, but not nearly as bitter as the Lavinian variety from Antioch. The summer is dreadfully hot, but not even close to the one in the Fallien desert. You get the picture.
Still, that doesn’t mean that Corone is not an interesting land. Au contraire, it is because it gives us all a flavor of everything, because there are such an overwhelming number of choices, that Corone is attractive. In fact, I could go as far as saying that all you need is Corone, because exploring every nook and crevice of this land would take more years then even an elf could afford.
