Before The-oldest-nimble-one’s-last-wish the Nimble-of-the-sky lived in a place called The-northern-reaches. When it was wrenched from the crust of Shelush and sent heavenward it became known as Home-of-safety-high. In its wake the oceans filled the crater of unthinkable scale forming a new body of water that was soon dubbed The-once-north-sea. Now the Eastern-straight-of-the-once-north and the Western-straight-of-the-once-north provide a new and useful trade route over water from the Fair-and-just-rule-of-minds to the western reaches of The-government-of-steel. It is a cold journey, but worth the trip for larger payloads requiring no substantial land transport to reach much farther ports. This is a common way for Sojourners to hitch a ride from the Fair-and-just-rule-of-minds to a Nimble-of-the-sky porting island or The-government-of-steel.
Porting Islands
Three large island land masses sit in the southern portion of The-once-north-sea which the Wings-of-blinding-glint watch over, transporting goods and folk to and from the Home-of-safety-high with their modified Nimble-flight-suits. Several cities can be found on each island that are perhaps some of the most eclectic slices of civilization in all of Shelush. All three major people groups can be found mingling and going about their lives together. Those who do not wish to get along amicably find it hard to function within these groups as their communities are tight knit and revolve around word of mouth and trust.
