Yura

Across the Emerald Sea, covered with dense, fetid jungles and the collapsed detritus of ancient empires lies the continent of Yura. Home to the queen of the Eastern cities, jeweled and golden Magava, Yura is a continent of bustling trade, exotic desires, and legendary intrigue. Fabled for her precious stones, spices worth their weight in gold, and bazaars teeming with every conceivable pleasure of metal and of flesh, it is said if it cannot be found in Yura it is not worth buying. A gold coin can buy a man untold sin and a handful can purchase his darkest desires. Yura guards her wealth jealously and protects her gilded, elite masters. Yura is nominally ruled by an Emperor/Empress, but true power rests in the firm grasp of seven Satraps, men and women of obscene wealth and immeasurable power, truly answerable only to the all-consuming allure of gold. But for all her charms Yura is a land of danger, secrecy, corruption and conspiracy. Mysterious, treacherous and decadent Yura whispers to those who seek fortune and power.   (**This Page is a Work in Progress**)
