The Unknown Regions
Despite the name, The Unknown Regions are a pair of well explored continents in The East Sea. These regions were mostly unexplored a few hundred years ago, But have recently been the target of a large effort to gain information about it, They still call it Unknown Regions because the head researcher thought it sounded neat and they didn't have another one.
Home to many races, But primarily reptilian humanoids, These regions have large parts that are mostly uninhabited, Allowing nature to thrive. Both of the islands have large amounts of Swampland and huge Jungles, With ancient settlements scattered throughout.
Most of the people in these regions worship either Sobek (or some other ocean/water god) or they'll worship "The Great Oak", A ginormous oak tree that is hailed by many to be divine, Determining the fates of it's followers. And while the tree itself may not determine fate, It does have some divine abilities that are not yet fully known about.
Climate
This area tends to be humid and hot, With the occational cool sea breeze depending on where you are.
