Aethzier: The Golden Sea

Aethzier: The Golden Sea

Aethzier is a land that feels devoid of life. Hundreds of miles of stretching sands dunes, some tall other short, the sand waves back and forth as if it is the sea itself. Flowing to and fro with the wind until at last far and deep within the oceans embrace lays an oasis so massive that it has brought about life of a different kind, the rest of the world does not know of. Here in the center, the largest conglomeration of Humans live, protected by their swallowing sand dunes, they have thrived. Building machines, and contraptions the world has also not seen.
Here in Aethzier, A land of sand and wind and darkness,
The humans live. Safe.

Geography

There are three main parts of the Aethzier. The Vast Ocean of Sand with its many parts, each flowing into one another in interchanging borders and boundaries.
The Underdark, where the city of Nifeil rests among a bed of icy water, cool and dark and its depths unknown to all who live there.
And the small island of the SouthMarsh.

Each implicit in its own behavior, its own confined space.

The Golden Sea

Atop of things, lie the Ocean of sand. Referred to as the Sandsea, or the Sandwinds, a place so vast that it stretches for more than a thousand miles from end to end. In the Sandsea, there lies oasies, both large and small but none that matches the total size of Azeoth. A huge Oasis that stretchs hundreds of miles, the lake even begetting the name of Grandeur at the start of its existence. Within the Oasis, there are flora, fauna, and even small hills that hide veins of unique minerals and rocks archetypes not seen anywhere else. The Trees stretch long and far due to the influence of both Gradnuer and the Undava.

Undava and Nifeil

Underneath the Oasis lies the Underlake or in the Verallian tongue the Undava. A Lake just as vast and just as wide as the Oasis above it and at the center lies the once abondoned city Nifeil. Now a place for Humans and Veral to co-exist. Sprouting from the center of the city are large stone bridges leading into the many tunnels that stretch from this place and into the darkness beyond leading and twisting into nothing far below the earth. Some have been found to connect to the underoads of Yggsil, but the whole of the underlakes labryinth has been said to be unmappbale.

The Southmarsh

The Isle of the SouthMarsh lies south to Azeoth and Nifeil. With rolling hills, and a small forested area of natural brush and greens, and a plain of irridescent grass, the plans of EastMarsh has been hidden within rumors so that none would wish to land there. It being the plainest structure of land within Aether.

Fauna & Flora

The Sandsea contains more tropical trees, and spreading brushs making it hard to venture far into the tropical forest surrounding Lake Granduer and the other small Oasies. They are colorful, from the most flowing green one had ever seen to the brightest orange among blue leaves, the tropical climate and the vast veins of cool calming water feed into the plants allowing them to live annd grow large and bloom out to rediculous levels.
The Underlake is full of mushrooms, moss and fungus of all type. Some pure white plants that feed off of other plants via the roots and stems will be occasionally found in the dark labryinth among the vast and large roots that dig deep from the oasis above.
Most of the plantlife can be found deep down in the shallows of the Undava, where there is bioluminescent rocks and other forms of light creations throughout both the lake and caves. A different kind of coral, normally bleached white or full on black grow among the cavernous pillars that hold the city up.
The SouthMarsh is filled with forested trees, and flowers pink and budding blues. A peaceful plain of grey-green grass that lull on the rolling hills.

Natural Resources

The oasis cities/towns/outposts get alot of their resources from the UnderLake, where mining veins, and other ores and rocks can be found. The Oasis bed is has soft earth and good soil for growing fruit and the animals (Mostly reptile) are cooked and brought in for farming.
Here they have domesticated Lizzals, and eat the different types of snakes as delicacies. Reptile milk still produces a bitter sweet set of cheeses and they use the poisons for differennt alchemical concotions the mostly damage than heal.
Poisons, combustions, acidic compounds, is a specialty in Aethzier.
As well as spices and different types of fruits that can only be found in the oasis.
A good percentage of their resources are ported in from other cities from SouthMarsh. Anything they need they can gather from there.
The UnderLake, also holds a host to a large number of bioluminescent fish, insects, and animals that have gotten used to living deep in the caves.
