Nivaulis Mountains
In the northern most region of Valyria, a vast mountain range stretches over most of the northern border. The mountains sweep around and to the east creating a wide arc, where far below various fields and evergreen forests can be seen. At almost all times the mountains are covered in snow, their temperatures dipping incredibly low in winter. Large snow storms are frequent on the mountaintops, and dangers of avalanches keep many steps cautious. The mountains themselves are pocketed all over with various caves and valleys where various herds have been known to make their home. The land here is rough and unpredictable to those that may be unfamiliar with it. There are legends about some of the ancient caves here housing dragons and their stolen treasures deep inside of them. » testing the points and ma... by Tempest 04-16-2019, 05:35 AM |

Alsius Bay
To the north western edges of Valyria, bordering along the Navaulis Mountains, the Alsius Bay stretches out for several miles. The shore is a dark thick sand, littered with wilting yellowed grasses. Jagged cliffed edges spill massive chunks of ice over their edges, some breaking loose to crash into Vyseria Ocean far below. The freezing ocean waters of the north are commonly spotted with massive chunks of ice flow and passing glaciers. Various arctic animals have made their home in this barren place. In all seasons but summer, the bay is a solid thick sheet of ice. When warmer temperatures come to the bay it is a difficult and dangerous place and many have been known to be lost to the unforgiving frigid waters that linger beneath. In winter when the ice is furthest and strongest something unknown can be seen out in the distance. Never

Estrella Field
Estrella Fields sits along the southern border of the Nivaulis Mountain range. The fields here are strange and beautiful. The field is full of flowers, in every color imaginable. Small glowing white orbs provide light here, landing from flower to flower to seemingly rest. The land here is believed to be blessed, as some of the rarest plants known to Valyria have been discovered growing in small patches. Healers have been known to make long and difficult journeys to come and hunt out their desired herbs here. Many cultures feel this land is a hallowed ground for its rich sources of life in all forms. It is believed that if the land is not shown proper respect or blood is spilled on the soil, ill luck will follow. Never

Riviori Forest
South of the Nivaulis mountain range, the land is still high and jagged, unbalanced like the range to the north but far descended here to allow the growth of a thick evergreen forest. The trees here are quite tall and old, large enough that some have been hollowed to allow dens in and large enough that one could easily hide their whole body behind it. The tree trunks are carved with strange ancient symbols, giving off a faint green glow and leaking small amounts of a strange glowing green sap with unknown properties, but is rumored to be useful in potions. The trees themselves give off a faint greenish glow at all times, but it is much more noticeable in the darkness of night. Even when the pine needles fall off of the trees they retain their brilliant glow. Never

Crystari Mountains
South of the Nivaulis mountain range and the Riviori Forest, the land rises into a smaller mountain range, overgrown with moss and grass lands. Large still crystal clear lakes and pools are scattered around the terrain, creating large rivers and slow moving creeks that weave all over the lands and web out over all of the lands of Valyria. Fed by so much water, the land here is very green and vibrant in the warmer seasons with thick vegetation covering much of its surface. It’s an ideal hunting ground as many herds tend to gather and make their homes on the steep mountainside, drawn in by the heavy plant life and abundant sources of water. It’s a rugged place though and can pose difficulty to navigate and one can easily become lost in the deeper mountains. Never

Vyseria Beach
Along the western edges of Valyria, traveling all the way from the Alsius Bay, a thick sandy shore line travels for several miles. Large rocks and seashells decorate the shore, some even formed into small dens where the sea waters constant waves have worn away massive openings into their sides. Salt grasses and various bits of shrubbery grow further up the shore closer to the in land, and heavy trees along that. Out into the ocean small islands break the tranquil blue surface, much of their contents unknown to the wolves of Valyria. Legends and lore speak of the islands holding many curses to those who trespass on them. Such stories have kept visitors away for some time. » The Lynx & Whitewater by Orithyia 09-07-2019, 08:26 PM |
