Rel'kia (Rel-key-ah)

The Southern Continent, or "Rel'kia" as its often referred to in the Khufuan tongue, is the second largest continent in Kaldra. Its name means "Ancient" or "Wise". It was the seat of power in the Old Kaldran Empire and was largely taken over by Khufu shortly after it's fall.   Almost the entire continent is either desert or mountains, with small pockets of hope tucked away in scattered locations. It's most fertile lands are the capital of Khufu, Khet-Pho, and the surrounding wetlands.   Khufu and Al-Zha'ad have been locked in a holy war for centuries, which has made the fertile areas even more scarce.

Geography

Most of the land is a harsh desert or dry mountains, with only a few acceptations. One of which is at the northernmost part of the continent; the wetlands around Khet-Pho of Khufu. Another is the gigantic oasis near the eastern part that is where Zaaliq of Al-Zha'ad is built upon.   It is home to three different deserts; the Khahad Desert, the Zaddian Desert, and the Valley of Torment. Its tallest mountain is Mount Khet, which supplies fresh water to Khufu's furthest settlement "Akhporis". Other notable mountains include the Sambalan Range to the south of Zaaliq, Mount Zin which supplies water to several Khufuan cities, and the famous "Protection Mountains", which the locals claim stopped the Great Desolation from reaching them.
