Valrios
This is a small shard, with but three major continents on the world. These are the continents of Aridan, Jenova, and Ilkarim. This shard, surprisingly, has no extreme winter or summer conditions as the entire world seems to have a very temperate climate. For a very long time, this was known as the Realm of the Six.
The world you see before you is one of great beauty, danger and intrigue. Science and sorcery adorn this realm, as my new people have traveled the realms of cloudsbreak, the stars, the whole of space.
Aridan, Jungle Realm of the Heart. This is a lush jungle realm with few populated cities, and tremendous wildlife. Flying Tk'ai (Squirrels with bat wings), Drakks (Small Dragons with animal level intelligence) and other assorted creatures dominate the land. To live in a city here can be perilous, but the healing herbs that reside here are second to none. It is in fact these healing reagents that are the major export of trade, as they import the raw materials, exotic food and gold from the neighboring continents. The Valheru Guardians of Jenova are the Ka'Riana, and Zhion.
Ilkarim, Desert realm of Commerce. The desert traders of Jenova are the most crafty and intelligent in the entire shard when it comes to commerce. They trade in their fine sand to make into glass, ore and other exotic rocks from quarries to make into fine bricks and foundations for great manors and castles, and in gold since they are in possession of the greatest mines known. They also own mines in the other two realms and pay handsomely for control of these mines. Castles in this region take the breath away. The Valheru Guardians of this realm are Sara, and Andru.
Jenova, Lush Greens of the Realm. If you seek a source of food in the realm, seek the lush greens and farmlands of Jenova. Nowhere in the world has more farmable land than Jenova, as all the most wondrous and magnificent foodstuffs come from this realm. There are very few cities in this realm as well, as most people are just satisfied with the farming. Few move in to start farms and others move out to explore more possibilities, as the Guardians make it easy for those to move from realm to realm, keeping the bloodlines fresh. The two guardians are Akiko and Sou Kushu.
There is a small tower which extends from the bottom of the seas to the sky, almost 40,000 feet in height, and a mile wide. This is the tower of the Watcher, which had been vacant for centuries, until the Valheru found one to be the Watcher of the Realm.
I am the Seventh Guardian, and the tower has since been renamed the Tower of Tears, in honor of a Paladin Title I had when I lived in another realm. My previous two homes are gone to me now, only their memories remain. I live here, and I watch the people and the skies above, as the Lord of Tears, Watcher of Viridos.
