Heleg Parath

The Continent of Heleg Parath, is known as the Ice fields. One of the oldest continents to hold a continuous kingdom, second only to Ardamire. It has been home to the Snow Elves since the First Dark Age. Known for its almost continuous winters. Even in the hottest summers, the northern parts of this continent are covered in a blanket of snow.

Currently this continent is home to three races, Snow Elves, Forsaken Elves and Humans. The humans being refugees from when Thenerious brutally captured the continent of Voronda. While many claim it has always been controlled by the Snow Elves and the Snow Elves alone, there is a belief that is gaining momentum, that there may have been other races here.

The Snow Elven region has very little in the way of Gold and Silver mines. However it has large reserves of Copper, Iron and Howlite, which are used to create the coins. Before they are then soaked in thin layers of Gold, Silver or Copper, giving them their trademark looks.

Kingdoms

Glacier Kingdoms

Helmi Teilte
Culverin Controlled.
Helmi Tielte is the crown jewel in the Glacier empire, although far north, the Vasiluta mountains protect it from the cold winds produced in the giant valley that is Old Sotafel. A spacious region, it is known for it's abundance in farm lands.

Old Sotafel
Carnen Controlled.
Old Sotafel is the second oldest kingdom in the realm. Nestled in the split of the Snow Spine mountain range, it is essentially a giant valley. A once varied landscape it is now mostly desolate lands with burnt or dead forests and dried lands. Such as the Carnen Waste, which encompasses almost the entire north western part of the kingdom.

Ceannias
Dagamer Controlled.
Known as the river kingdom. Ceannias is a kingdom in the northern part, but it is also a merchants dream. The land is filled with fast flowing and deep rivers that allows for trader to get deep within Glacier territory and with the canal through the snow Spine connecting the two main rivers, it allows trade to flow almost uninterrupted through Heleg Parath.

Teorann Tielte
Reylar Controlled.
Teorann Tielte is the border lands. Once it was a great land of plains, that were used to feed most of Heleg Parath. However with the exile of the Athlassans, it become more and more clear that these lands would never be given the time to heal, from the constant raids from the bitter and frustrated Forsaken Elves.

New Sotafel
Carnen Controlled.
The middle kingdom is a lovely well looked after land, with several forests and towns. It is the only region to have had multiple different High Lord. In addition to the only region to be directly ruled by other current High Lords. It is bordered by all of the other kingdoms, making it the centre of conflict when the Snow Elves turn on themselves.

Esterion
Othranar Controlled.
Land once ruled by the Athlassans, it is now ruled by the Humans who escaped the butchery of Thenerious Amulhan over a thousand years ago. The land itself is well fortified and is the border between the Wood Elves, Leonin and other beast races of Leralethron and the kingdoms of Heleg Parath.

Free Kingdoms

Felaturios
Athlassan Controlled.
The kingdom of the Forsaken Elves, this name was once used to refer to the kingdom specifically ruled by the Athlassans. Now this name is used to refer to the entire southern region, as they successfully united the other three kingdoms under their banner.

Mountains

The Snow Spine
The Snow Spine is the largest mountain range in Heleg Parath, cutting the entire continent in half. It has several passes including the southern Tulister pass and the Kyatia or as it is known, the valley of tears.

The range also has several off shoots, including the Vasiluta and The Dakain hills.

Palm of Axereus
The Palm of Axereus is made up of six mountains, these host the legendary city of Othrond. The city spans all these mountains, with walk ways connecting all of the mountains, under and above ground.

Golden Arrow
The Golden Arrow is a large mountain range that forms two arrows, the eastern arrow and the northern arrow. Both named after the directions of which they point. This mountain range is known as a source for several valuable gold and silver mines, however the mines are incredibly unstable making it very risky to try and find your wealth.

Laiho Enclave
Mountains that have formed in the Ulairi Swamp, they are barren and almost impossible to summit. There is even a rumour that one of the mountains is actually a volcano.

Forests

Ango Vanatera
Known as the Snake Walker forest, it is a dense pine forest far in the north of Helmi Tielte. Covering the Lacare region off from the rest of the region, it has acted as a major buffer to invading forces, as many who pass through the forest claim to see humanoid snake people within it's borders.

Crystal Forest.
The Crystal Forest, is the forest closest to Maril Osto, is crosses the crystal river and is known as the royal forest to some. Hunting is strictly forbidden, unless you have the kings consent. With beautiful red leafed trees, it stands out in the snowy biome of Heleg Parath.

Ulairi Swamp.
The Ulairi Swamp is an ancient and dark forest that covers the southern part of the Teorann Tielte region. Acting as a natural border between the Snow Elves and their exiles cousins, the Forsaken.

It was rumoured that the southern region was more akin to Leralethron and with the cold winds from the north, it was a land of bounty and beauty. But it is no more, now a poisonous realm seeped in dark magic, it oozes cruelty.

Hangmans Swamp.
A small swamp just over three days away from Maril Osto. It is the location where most Glacier public executions take place. The body of the criminal is then left to rot, hanging from a tree.

Tauri Landa.
Known as the Northern forest, it marks the border between the Wood Elves and the Snow Elves.
