The Continent of Galaria

Galaria is the smallest of the three continents that comprise Sylfe's eastlands. During the time of the third rising of the dark one, to the Alriiean races, Galaria was a lost land, sunken beneath the waves, carrying with it all trace of human civilization.

It has already been discovered to still lie above the ocean, however, much of it has indeed sunk. It is no more than an over-sized atoll, a ring of islands surrounding an expanse of open water save for the largest island right at its heart. Upon this isle stands the fortress-city of Ha'San Mien.

Traditionally, its the cultural boundaries of Galaria begin where Alriiea's continental shelf drops off, but in recent times, the demarcation line begins at the Isle of the Just, one of the Isles in the archipelago called "The Mother's Necklace"

Political Situation
In the old times, Galaria served as the center of almost all political controversy that was to be had in the Eastlands. Although it was a relatively small continent, it was split into a number of kingdoms which were almost always at each others' necks due to one reason or another. The humans were a fickle species. It was for this very reason that they were banished to Galaria by the old races who knew that the humans would soon return to their destructive ways.

Even though they were such violent creatures, Galaria served the other races well by providing the best seaworthy vehicles. Also, the Humans were very useful in the war against the Dark One.
