Kirru

The Realm of Air, Kirru is covered in high mountains and low valleys. It is ruled over by the massive Svanti Empire.

Geography

Kirru is dominated by vast swathes of mountains, with only the southern and western edges of the realm lacking in mountainous areas.

Localized Phenomena

Windstorms commenly buffet the high peaks and valleys of the realm, especially in the spring months. The strangest phenomenon is the mysterious Tengo Valley, which is said to be a piece of sky cloud brought to the earth. The valley his guarded feircly by the Kyu-Kua giants, and little of its secrets have escaped to the wider realm. The neighboring vallry, The Cosmic Valley, is also imbued with a strange amount of Cosmic Energy, allowing for greater communement with The Cosmic Force.   Another local feature is the four Tower of the Winds, each housing their own wind spirit. The North Wind, said to hear all the north wind hears, the East Wind, said to feel anything the east wind feels, The South Wind, said to.

Climate

Due to its elevated nature, Kirru is much colder on average than other realms, with it getting extremely cold in the northern region.

Fauna & Flora

Kirru is native to a large breed of goat known as the Tayuza. These massive beasts take the place of horses in the realm, as they are much more suited to travel over the mountain slopes.

Natural Resources

Due to its mountainous nature, Kirru is rich in ore, stone, and metal.

History

Crafted in the age of creation by Yai, Kirru was besieged in the age of conflict by the Titan Teth and the mighty Oni Fiendish Lord known as O-Bakêmo. The dwarves of the realm crafted mighty Sky Claves out of skymetal, and after the monsters were defeated, formed a realm spanning empire, known as the Dowan Sky Empire. Eventually, the secrets of maintaining the Sky Claves was lost, and the Sky Empire collapsed, with steam-ship technology propelling the Eleyai ahead and forming the Svanti Empire.

Tourism

Travel is quite difficult both to and around Kirru, due to its mountainous nature and the dangers of its Borderlands. However, a delegation of Kirrans participated in the recent Tech-War, and the ascent of the Collective One, and a relationship with the Iron City has been established. Now, several scores of the tech races, especially those displaced by the war, have began migrating north into Kirru.
