Eralis, the Underwater Kingdom
Overview
The underwater nation of Erasil is a haven for the more aquatic races, a place where the chaos of the surface can - rarely - touch them. It is thus one of the safest locations on Aurea, and certainly under the Sototmn Oceon.Eralis seems to be much, much older than the civilizations on the surface, including the continent of Azoa which was settled quite some time ago.
The people of Eralis are exceptionally skilled at living in harmony with the underwater enviroment, and as a result the enviroment tends to take care of them. It is said that anyone attacking the kingdom doesn't just need to contend with Eralis' people, but also the very kingdom itself will turn against them.
Government
Eralis is a total monarchy, currently under the control of the Sea Hag Marina and advised by her Vizier, Jaarad. The power of the Queen of the Sea is absoloute within her kingdom, and few under the waves would dispute her dominion within Eralis - those that do tend not to have long, gainful futures.For the most part, the nation leaves th surface world alone, and has a cold, distant relationship - most of the lands above sea level are a chaotic mess that the kingdom doesn't need.
Still, the kingdom maintains a few contacts with the surface. Eralis' most in depth contact with the surface world so far has come in the form of the Coliseum Dispute Reolution agreement drawn up with the fishing town of Anfortas
