The World of Sea - Nalutis

[gamer5]

Long ago a great sea demon united the inhabitants of the sea. Using the wast power he obtained he submerged almost the whole land into the ocean. Finally he came to the last land left, the large islands of Farret and Suna separated by the Suna Straight. His army quickly assaulted the unprepared Farret island but when he turned to Suna, a lone hero and a rebellious mermaid with a band of comrades and allies meet him and his army. Using the holy sword Armah he fought and defeated the Sea King, but was killed by the Sea King's eldest daughter before he could strike the killing blow. The mermaid then fallen in anger and slaughtered most of the Sea King's army and family. Then she took the holy sword Armah, as a memento of the man she loved, and vanished into the sea. The band of warriors which fought alongside them split and became kings and queens, in new or old countries. 1379 years goes by...

The world is similar to the world of the early Renascence and the late medieval era with Farett being more like the christian Europe with the Church holding a great influence (Ilian is a exception) while the two southern countries of Suna is more like feudal Japan during it's periods of political instability and Ikara being a stable country with a strong ruler and military leader.

Farret has a colder climate with Mediterranean climate in the south and oceanic in the north. Only the inland between Farett Mountains and Yisten Ridge has continental climate. The mountains have their specific climate. Suna is mostly monsoonal with only the north of Ikara having more a Mediterranean climate.

Since both islands get a large amount of rain and have preferable climates forestation is dense and harvest are rich and plenty with one to three harvest each year, depending on the area and grain in question. Wildlife is abundant and diverse. Magical beings are also present.

The religion practiced on Farett is similar to Christianity but in it's center lies the legendary person Hian and it's called Hianisam.
In Suna the main religion, called Iwanisam, is a similar to Shinto with a more strong polytheistic point with many "larger" gods.
A widespread religion, but without many followers, is Alianisam which celebrates the great sky birds.

Magic is common and one can be born with or without magic abilities.
Humans share the land with many refugees from the mainland like elves, dwarves, centaurs, harpies and so on.

Suna Straight is traversed by ships, but with fighters abroad to repel potential attacks from the inhabitants of the sea.
Around half of the population is free citizens, a third is still serfs and the rest is made out of aristocracy, priests and other.
Guilds exist for almost every occupation and job.
