Ellesmere:

Ellesmere is mostly forest land with various mountain ranges.

Zariya is where the elves live. It has various mountain regions within in it. The capital of Zariya is located in the center. That is where the kingdom is. The farther out from the kingdom you go the less populated the area becomes. Many of the woodland creatures now live in this area due to the humans destroying woodland areas for their cities and villages. Some of the animals that you’ll see are deer, elk, wolves, rabbits, various birds, mountain lions. There is a magical barrier that protects Zariya from the humans. It is about thirty miles wide. The farther into the barrier the humans get the more their brain becomes fog.

Lithelle is largest human region. Lithelle is flat land that is rich of copper and gold. This is where the metal alchemist will live to make and mold the weapons, armor, and other items for the capital. This is where the werewolf camps are located. There are other experiments that happen here, but no one knows for sure what it is.

Ravaryn is where all the farming villages are located. The soil is rich and never seems to lose their nutrients. Many believe this is where the magical energy radiates from the most.

Kikoro is the fishing ports and small rural villages. It is the poorest of the human colonies.

Findare is a hilly area that is rich of silver. The people of Findare make many of the weapons that the soldiers of the castle will use. They also will make everyday items that are sold in Cantrick.

Cantrick is the second wealthiest place is Ellesmere. All the worlds shops are located there. It is overcrowded and crime is very high. Toward the center of it is where the more rundown and sketchier looking shops are. They say that you can find some of the rarest goods there if you know who to ask.

Alynthi is considered the capital of Ellesmere by the humans. It is where the kingdom of the humans is located. It looks like something out of fairytale. The city is made mostly of metal and brick. In the morning it shine brightly under the rising sun. During that time they call it the pure hour. Toward the center of town is where the castle is located. It is surrounded by giant walls to keep the common people out. The finest alchemy schools are located in Alynthi. The city is always busy with people working, going to school, and selling items. The farther out you travel though you are more likely to see poverty stricken areas.

Ellesmere’s facts:

The elven kingdom has used this magic for healing and medicine, they called it Galena. While the human kingdom has used the magic energy for alchemy; they called it Vitriol.

Alynthins were peaceful people until they were given this energy.

Since the discovery of alchemy, they have been able to advance rapidly. They learned how to sculpt and make things from simple objects around them. By discovering this they were able to explore more of Ellesmere by using mechanical horses that ran at speeds much faster than a regular horse. They were also able to make weapons of war. They used these weapons to capture small kingdoms and villages.

Not a hundred years had passed before they had various colonies throughout the land.

The elven kingdom were peaceful. The Zariyans were afraid of the humans due to the war machines that their alchemy had created. In response to this, their elders created a magical barrier around the kingdom that kept them hidden from the wars. Those who walked close to the kingdom minds were filled with a haze that made them forget what they were doing.

Races

Humans:

Humans have been around since the beginning of time.

They do not possess the magic ability to heal. They can create life, but not help it.

Even though there are various colonies, all humans are called Alynthians.

They are a monarchy.

They are a monotheistic religion.

Their god is called Tersele and they are the one who gave them magic. 

They don’t believe that the Earth gave them their magical abilities.

Everyone is born with the ability to use alchemy, but as they get older some people will lose it.

Everyone in the royal family are highly skilled in all three types of alchemy. They just don’t rely on it much and they don’t lose their powers

At the age of 10 is when they begin alchemy school.

At the school they learn three types of alchemy: Combat Alchemy Creation Alchemy Metalist Alchemy

Elves:

The history of the elves origin is unknown. Many of the elders believe that they once came from the human race, but the magical energy changed their makeup and caused them to use the magic differently.

They cannot do alchemy. Many have tried, but they just do not possess that type of magic.

Not many people though can use galena now. Only a rare few can. Those who can have the elders teach them about the healing and medicine they can do.

They start school as early as 5

They are a monarchy.

They are a monotheistic:

The Goddess of the Forest: Fersety

She watches over the wildlife and protects them during the hunt

Believes that she gives them galena

They have a ceremony that everyone must go through when they become of age. In this ceremony the elf gets their markings. The person wears the ceremonial white robe. It symbolizes the purity that they person posses from childhood. They then are submerged into water and when they rise it symbolizes the rebirth into adulthood. When galena is used their markings light up. How the ceremony is conducted varies depending on your status.

Royal family:

You are in a sacred room that is filled with water that has been blessed by the elders. The elders chant for the Goddess to bless them as they receive their marking. During this they might experience visions of both the past and future.

People of nobility:

The person does it in a pool at their local temple. The water has been blessed by the elders, but it is their religious leaders that chant while they are submerged. They will get visions, but they are not as powerful since it is not the elders chanting.

Commoners:

The person does it in the local ponds and lakes with the religious leaders of their village. Since the water is not blessed, they are less likely to see visions.
