Zai-Xai
Zai-Xai, located on the eastern edge of Kuma, is a land where two worlds collide: the vast, open grasslands meet the dense, untamed jungles, creating a landscape of striking contrasts. The province is both a place of freedom and hardship, where the unyielding savannah stretches far and wide, and the forested pockets of the jungle hold life within their green shadows. Winds sweep through the tall grasses of the savannah, which sway in rhythmic waves beneath the wide, open sky. Further inland, the jungle encroaches, thick with towering trees, creeping vines, and the scent of damp earth—a stark juxtaposition to the arid plains. These varying terrains create a unique environment, rich in resources and teeming with life.
Zai-Xai is a land caught between two worlds, where the golden savannah stretches beneath an endless sky, only to be swallowed by the dark embrace of the jungle. The plains are a realm of vast openness, where tall grasses sway like waves in the wind, and towering acacia trees cast long shadows over the sunbaked earth. Distant plateaus rise from the flatlands, their red stone faces carved by time and weather.
When the rains come, they arrive in force, turning the dry plains into a lush paradise, where rivers swell, and life explodes in every direction. Herds of great horned beasts thunder across the land, pursued by sleek predators that move like shadows in the tall grass. Birds of brilliant color take to the skies, their cries echoing over the land as they search for shelter from the coming storms.
Deeper into the jungle, the world changes. The air grows thick with humidity, heavy with the scent of damp earth and blooming flowers. Vines coil around ancient trees, their roots twisting through the undergrowth like grasping fingers. The canopy allows only scattered shafts of light to pierce the gloom, casting the forest floor in an eternal twilight. Here, life moves unseen—creatures that blend seamlessly into their surroundings, waiting, watching.
The climate of Zai-Xai is a study in contrast. The dry season reduces the rivers to little more than cracked beds of stone, while the wet season turns them into churning torrents that carve new paths through the land. The heat is relentless, but the storms bring brief relief, drenching the land in warm downpours before vanishing as quickly as they came.
