Lands

The lands of Arhkos Minott were those of war. Men and women bore on them leathers and organic armor even when there was no need for a blade to be brandished. Leading them, reigning over them as queen was a Sovran with a hardened heart and steely resolve. Numerous Great-Houses and all of those employed by them in were entwined in it all in one way or another.

Lands were harsh in the eyes of some. Two suns, one larger than the others, brightened a sky that barely had a clouds enough to rain. But for a Theosian, it was a gentle Summer. Mountains were a craggy backdrop and hardy grasses grew from the soils with forests of woods that could withstand the test of the ages and elements.

The ancient city of Shavris stood at the heart of the lands but numerous villages and cities were scattered about the lands. At the edges of the continent, where natural hamlets and coves were, ships brought in items for trade or those travelling by way of them.

Landsmarks

The Tulvas - Called as well, The Hall of Remembering, is a huge, four-storied Library that stands within the walls of the city of Shavris. There are tales as ancient as the mountains that roughly boarder the horizon. There are also historical documents, lineages of the wealthy and aristocracy.

The Sigil - The Sovran's castle that sprawls across a grotesque amount of acreage. Thirty foot walls that are ten feet thick fortify it within the boundaries of the great city. An army of men and women. Six keeps, with their watches on the tops of the walls guard the sovran.

Sovranty

It was in Shavris that the Sovran D'Esorai live. To the Theosians, she was their queen in all rights and station. But she was also a very hardened woman, despite being a mother. Her son is grown enough to wed and has taken a wife, all in plans for the Sovran's throne to have an heir.
