The Nexus

It is not known what truly caused the Nexus to come to be. Some will say that the seven great volcanos caused the lands to come to be and others claim that it was truly their deity that created the land that you see around you. However, only the scholars truly ponder those thoughts today as many are far too worried about the next war, their next meal, or if they have contributed enough to the local temple. And as for the typical adventurer, they think about the best way to get coin or perhaps are searching for a greater calling...   What is known however that not everyone in the land is fond of one another. Due to the Era of Ruin, also called the Fifth Age, many races saw conflict with one another. While war has continued into the Era of Reclamation, or the Sixth Age, the result of the Fifth age ending was the creation of the Suncairn Union. This land can be described as a melting pot for the races across the Nexus, a location where most anyone is welcome and allowed to travel unaccosted by the Union's guard. However, due to the circumstance in which this land was created, there are many guilds that are forming in the Union.   That is not to say that races are explicitly barred from travel, just that travel may require extensive, and perhaps excessive, documentation in order to travel. It should be noted that guards may harass certain races on the basis of the current (or former) political climate of the land that you come from. As such you do not need to be too worried to travel amongst the land, but do be aware of the risks associated with it and you'll do just fine.
