Tor Coastal Plain
The Tor Coastal Plain comprises much of the southern coastal lowlands centrally located on Mainland. As it lis located immediately north of Thestra, it is an area of rich history and dotted with crumbling ruins from the collapsing Elurian Empire.
With the Empire's withdrawal (and the fact that military retirees and their families were granted land in the region), the remaining folk have banded together into a loose coalition often called the River Kingdoms. Truth be told, the term was coined as a sarcastic dig at the haphazard and fractious nature of the polity.
The region is home to a great number of biomes, which made it sacred to the Altorii peoples in ancient times, and this reverence persists today among the various small clans remaining in the area. Given their affinity for the earth, rumors of some kind of Grove of the Ancients abound, apparently some sort of powerful holy site. Sadly, its location (if indeed it exists at all) remains a mystery.
