Thalass

Thalass is a world of water. Over 90% of the surface is covered in water. From what is found beneath the waves it is clear that at some point the world was not always submerged in water. There is evidence of civilizations long before that seemed to have been drowned ages ago.   As for the bits of land that can be found. Most if not all of these are volcanic islands that have formed over years and years of volcanic activity. Some of these islands have grown to their limits as the volcanos supporting this have gone extinct or have been dormant for ages. These islands are now used as some of the few places surface races can call home. Of these islands the largest is the Isle of Crita, where Educas the capital of the Juta Empire is located. This island is the largest stretch of land in all of Thalass and is home to the largest volcano in the world, Mt. Taras which is an active volcano that is long over due its next eruption.   From there other notable geographical aspects of Thalass is the, God Hand. This is a formation of stone and earth in the shape of a hand that holds the city of Hithlum within its palm. The residences of Hithlum claim that when the Great Flood was about to reach the walls of their city and drown them all they called out to Bahamut their patron god begging to be spared. Moved by the steadfast belief of the citizens Bahamut spared the city as the Platinum Dragon commanded the earth to raise it up over the rising waters. The city now stands over 100 stories in the air nestled within the palm of the God Hand.   Finally there is the known floating island city of Dor-Lómin and the rumored moving islands. Dor-Lómin is an elven city floats across the skies of Thalass. This is in contrast to the rumored moving islands of Thalass. Many sailors claim that they have spotted islands that move on their own and in some cases disappear beneath the waters right before their eyes.
