The world of I'Rileth is a vast and complex one, filled with various kingdoms, empires, and city-states. The Bellor Empire , the Asewin Dominion , and the Free Cities of Trist'an are three of the most prominent powers.
The Bellor Empire is a powerful monarchy with its capital in Telvor . The empire is known for its military might and its dedication to the Faith of the Nine . The Asewin Dominion , on the other hand, is an elective monarchy with its capital in Rimeshear . It is known for its powerful army and its strong economy. Like the Bellor Empire , it also places great importance on the Faith of the Nine .
The Free Cities of Trist'an are a collection of independent city-states that have banded together for mutual protection and trade. They are known for their diverse cultures and economies, as well as their relative freedom from religious dogma.
The kingdom of dwarves has retreated into their mountain holds within the Ashanor Mountain Range . These dwarves are known for their master craftsmanship and their deep devotion to their gods. The elves, on the other hand, have retreated to the Feywild, a magical realm accessible only through special portals. They are known for their connection to nature and their mastery of magic.
Religion plays a significant role in the world of I'Rileth. The Faith of the Nine is the dominant religion, with its seat of holy teachings and power in the floating city of Aus . The religion teaches that there are nine gods, each with their own domains of influence and that the followers should strive to live virtuous lives in order to gain favor with the gods. However, there are also many other religions and beliefs that exist in the world, some of which are considered heretical or even outlawed by the Faith. The hold of religion on the people varies from region to region, with some places being deeply devout and others more secular.
