| Welcome to Elenlond, an original medieval fantasy forum! We're always looking for new, dedicated members. Elenlond is composed of two continents: Soare and Esiria. Esiria, a land now isolated due to the efforts of the last remaining Goddess, is inaccessible to all beings and lies in the east. Soare, a continent in the west, is composed of three distinct nations: Ashoka, Soto, and Morrim. Lying between the two major continents are the Scattered Isles. Since the dissolution of the pantheon and the fall of the gods, these countries have existed in relative peace and prosperity. But how long will that peace last?

Erth'netora Forest
The Erth'netora Forest is the largest forest within Soto and is the one that encompasses much of the country. It is quite a peaceful place. The branches are close enough together to provide a great deal of shade, yet not so close that the forest is completely dark; it is possible to see where one is walking. It is said that this is where the woodland elves dwell, yet no one has yet set eyes upon them.
A crystal clear stream runs around the southern borders of the Erth’netora Forest. A light trickling sound arises from the water as it gently falls over small rocks in its path. The waters are among the purest in Soto, and there are often expeditions into the forest to retrieve it. The river cascades past a large waterfall and into a very calm pool just before it becomes the Falann river and runs into the ocean. The Erth'netora Forest surrounds the city of Madrid. |

Madrid
Madrid is the chief city of Soto. Naturally, vines and shrubs crowd the walls and most people have some sort of plant in their house. It is set into the side of a rather small, grassy mountain, the more prominent, wealthier families living near to its crown while those who live in the slums are towards its foot and are, consequently, on flatter land. The city itself is surrounded by forest and just barely juts above the incredibly tall trees.
The houses of the wealthy have been built from stone that is more of an earthy-tone with some roofs being flatter rather than triangular; most of the commoner houses have been built from the surrounding forest. On the tops of the flat roofs beautiful and lush gardens are cared for, creating romantic spots for couples who either live there, or are renting. Beautiful fountains adorn the market squares, spouting water while plants weave along their bases. The streets are filled with flamboyant and lively people. Madrid is truly the centre of Soto. At the crown of the hill resides the building used for the debates among the Twelve Councillors. |

Amaranth Falls
Set deep within the Erth'netora Forest are the Amaranth Falls. Despite the relatively level appearance of the forest from above, there are, in fact, very large cliffs and rolling hills. It is from one of these cliffs that the falls plunge, crashing down below onto large, jutting rocks before the water smooths into a large, snaking river. Surrounding the falls are beautiful, thick, lush trees, shrubs, and other such vegetation. Most of these plants are often found flowering, making the scene yet more surreal. Towards the bottom of the falls the bank is infringed upon by yet more bushes, making it difficult to walk. On one side of the bank there is a thin path, hardly noticeable to those who have never seen it before or who are not looking. If one follows it, they will be following the river leading from these falls deep into the forest; where it goes few have discovered.

Reine
Reine, the major port city of Soto, lies just a few miles down the beach from the massive cliff where the Falann river thunders over the edge in a brilliant cascade of water. The entire city is built on stone that ends where the water of the Sedokai Ocean begins. From here large wooden boardwalks snake out to create a wharf, offering a place for sailors and merchants to tie their ships. There is nothing special about the inhabitants' houses; each one is relatively small with straw- or shingled roofs, wood being the houses' main component. Only the inns, armouries, smithies, and other general shops are privileged enough to be built from dark red brick, distinguishing them from the rest. If there are steep inequalities in class and wealth, it is not obviously pronounced in Reine. Stalls selling fish and other seafood, trinkets, and other useless baubles line the more open streets. The most predominant people are sailors, fisherman, and merchants. On the odd time, however, one may even cross paths with a pirate.
Thieves do run rampant here, stealing what they can from merchants who are not nearly as innocent as they make themselves out to be. |
