The Gate Is: CLOSED
Rearranged the boards in Med Temra.
They now go from easternmost to westernmost from top to bottom.
Hopefully this makes them easier to navigate, map-wise.
Long ago, the world was ruled by humankind
An empire of technology spanned Temra from sea to shining sea
But, into that world, the Gate opened its great maw
It unleashed magic and fire
And the human empire fell.
A great war raged across Temra, destroying all remnants of civilization
It took three hundred years to rebuild our world.
Now, seven hundred years after the Gate opened, we live in a time of peace.
Now, your stories can begin.

No New Posts Kingdoms of the West

Some of these are Mer kingdoms, others human, others Skyborn; border skirmishes used to be common here but generally are calm now, due to the influence of Vinhaven, which holds alliances and mutual nonaggression pacts with most of these smaller kingdoms.
