Mirand, the Evernight
Mirand, known widely as the Evernight, is a country located in the continent of Damir in Anira. Mirand's most noticeable trait is that the entire nation has been plunged into eternal darkness due to a magical mishap some age ago.
Fortuitously, the various towns and settlements of Mirand use an easily harvestable material on the island, Tuned Sunstone, to make devices called Sunglobes, which provide a adequate lighting to carry on with life in general.
Because of the lack of any real indicator of night or day, shops in Mirand are open all day and are staffed in shifts. Mirandines devote at least a third of their day to rest. The ruler of the Evernight (a King or a Queen) have astrologers who align palace dates with that of other kingdoms, and disseminate the knowledge out to the settlements to allow inter-island trade to occur.
Another consequence of the eternal night is the vast underground network of tunnels the Mirandines have built, as Sunglobes provide enough light to operate within those conditions.
