Geography

Alerar is a vast continent with very diverse landscapes. This will be a brief area by area overview of the continent.

To the north, Alerar shares it's border with Salvar. This is the mountainous region which contains Kachuk. There are a number of passes in these mountains which lead into Salvar, but none are easy as this is some of the harshest mountain terrain in all of Althanas.

Just to the south of these mountains is L' Renor Harlilen, or The Black Steppe. This is a mostly deserted region between the central plains and before the Kachuk Mountains.

To the east lie The Mountains of Dawn/Mountains of Twilight (depends on which side your on) and the border with Raiaera. These mountains are mostly easy to pass, mainly along the Valinatal Pass. In the northern reaches of these mountains where they merge with the Kachuk mountains also lies the portal to Haidia.

The southern and central regions comprise the Fields of Khu'fein, the large flatland that comprises the majority of Alerar's area. It is here in the south-center of the continent you can find Ettermire, the capital, and Etheria Port in the south, Alerar's only major port on it's limited southern coasts.

To the far west and southwest are yet more mountains, with the border to Antioch in the southwest. These mountains are entirely unpassable with the Tomb of Fallen Kings preventing passage into Antioch.
