Zanthor

Geography
Zanthor consists of two major provinces, Suugri and Cesos. Underground tunnels systems and architecture can be found from previous colonisers. The provinces are spread across a large island, although it is only one island there are 2 areas that differentiate themselves by landscape that can be explored.

Suugri
This is the largest province of Zanthor, home to the Goshlings and Meadow Folk of the Moonclaw Empire. In the centre is the capital city of Nalbez. Other cities are scattered across the province such as Mudrock, Oselion and Nekkadi. It is under the monarchy of the Moonclaw Empire. Meadows and dense pine forests dot the landscape with occasional rivers, lakes and mountains. The Goshlings remain in their tribes at Oselion and Nekkadi while the Meadow Folk keep away at Mudrock. Although it is the largest province of Zanthor, it is the most barren with swamps and mountains taking up most of the landscape. After the death of his mother, Emperor Ezmur took power of Suugri. Named after the Vertrys Saint of Suugri.

Cesos
The conquest of Man brought them to Zanthor where they settled in the Southern area of the island. Terrified of the creatures of the swamps Man did what it does best, waged war against the tribes and slaughtered hundreds of its people. The witches from the tribes cursed the Men of Cesos so all their fruit was rotten, crops would never grow and their women were infertile, cows milk was sour and water would dry up. Man then made a Treaty with the tribes claiming they can protect and civilise the tribes and they lift the curse in return. After the feud was settled they established The Great City of Anvil. Small towns are spread through the landscape such as Riversend, The Barony of Swindle, Eslork and The Barony of Vünd. Rocky mountains shape the land with large lakes and dense vegetation. The hillside on the western side of the island is covered in farmland while the Eastern side is too rough and elevated. Once The Great City of Anvil was completed Peter Pentol was elected King. The province is named after the Vündah saint, Cesos.
