Summer Camp 2019 in Istaria

July is finally here again, and that means it's time for Summer Camp. Thirty days and thirty worldbuilding prompts!

I see Summer Camp as an opportunity to explore and flesh out aspects of my worldbuilding that I may not have thought of, and thereby add another layer of richness to the setting.

I plan to focus on Istaria for the event, as the scope and scale of this project dwarfs all my others. I'm excited to start working on The Eternity War Saga, but in the meantime I'm happy to expand on the setting for here on World Anvil.
