Anthulíen. The name Drake heros, the God of Immagination gave his part of Cameanthul.
The many travelers whom visited Anthulíen gave it the nickname: "The Art of Cameanthul. For it's many different terrains.
Although the lands consist mostly out of big stretching plains, there are also more hilly regions, mountains and even deserts, wich are to be found behind the mountain, where not even the rainclouds are able to traverse over the steep rock.
Several cities and towns are located troughout Anthulién and live a pretty secluded life. the towns and cities live on their own. using their own resources instead of supplementing traderoutes with eachother.

1: Minas Evihl
Minas Evihl. The main capital of Antulíen. This city is located on top of
the Sula-Líen, a huge mountain overlooking the rest of the lands.
Sula-Líen means Combinend (Sula) Elements (Líen), and refers to the fact that all the known parts of Anthulíen are combinend here. There is no tip on Sula-Lién, but instead a huge crater. Unknown how the crate originated the people belief it happenend when Infenyte, the god of warfare and Drake heros, god of immagination clashed with eachother.
The mountain itself is surrounded by a dense forest, and several small villages are located there, to take adventage from the protection Minas Evihl offers.
Originally Minas Evihl was a temple in honor of the god Drake. It was build inside the middle of the crater. The people used the stone from the mountain itself to build it. A huge building in pagode-style with three floors. On the main floor the ceremonial prayer grounds is located. here all the people gather to pray to Drake. The second floor is dedicated to the battle between the two gods. A Tournament field, this is where the anual fight between the I'lorim battle priests of Infenyte fight against the priest of Drake in a ceremonial battle.* The last floor of the temple is where the priests of Drake reside.
After a while people started to build their houses and shops near the temple and already soon it became a busteling city. It became the main capital after the king of Anthulíen build his new palace there.
Surrounding the temple of Drake are four other temples, each for one different god and all in pagode style.
The king makes sure that the main capital remains a safehaven for travelers and civilians.

2: Thiril
Thiril, also named as the city capital of the desert shrine. Is a small city located in the Erelor Desert.
This desert is located behind the Yuríelin Mountains, where it rarely rains and the schorging sun is at it's brightest.
Thiril is build on a huge underground oase, wich constantly get supplied with fresh water coming from the mountains. Thier food mainly consist of the Erquin. A huge desertbird, wich has long forgot the ability to fly.*
It is called the city capital of the desert shrine for a reason. It is said that this ancient shrine was once the biggest of Cameanthul and was dedicated to Drake. However a huge tremor came and the shrine fell down, into the undergound oase. Now only the tip of the shrine sticks out of the hole, and the people pray here to Drake.
The Devae that orignally hailed from Sonates find Erelor desert and Thiril City quite livable for their race and it isn't strange that a large part of these creatures is found here, and the other small cities living in the desert.

3: Elemiéun
A mystical city located in the dense forest of Evershine Woods just a four day travel from Minas Evhil. What makes it a mystical place is that it's completly made out of wood coming from the many tree's. Small huts and cabins are scattered around the ground and they build their homes even high up in the tree's. It is truly a sight for the eyes, as the creatures inhabiting the lands, The Selvé are making sure no harm is done to the surroundings or their homes. Although a populair place, humans and other creatures are not allowed unless proven they have a pure heart and mean no harm upon the woods. However Elimiéun has it downsides. as the Brahnka's also live in the Evershine woods, in the more swampy regions.
These creatures are hostile against everyone and everything and the Selvé always have to face off against them to protect their city. It is unknown how these Brahnka's live as no person who had ever seen their homes could escape alive...

4: Merinin
In the high mountains there is a whole city build on the tops of few of the highest mountains. Merinin is the capital city of the Southern Wind. As here is believed that the wind as spoken languages of the god Drake, not many creatures live here.
There are deep underground passages and high bridges build to connect the few mountain tops. They shape the form of an pentagram. The mountain in the middle has a little sanctum devoted to Drake's believing. Around it is the market and on the outer 5 mountain tops is made mostly for houses, guilds and havens. It is not uncommon to find skyshippes here. Ships made to fly in the skies. It is rarely if they leave the mountain areas, it is possible to travel to the capital city, Minas Evihl by skyship.
Because of the trade passages and connections by skyships, skypirates are also found, they rob the passing ships of their treasures. And if people let them they can go. If people try to top them, the ship will be brought down. And for this purpose only a guild of skyship guardians is set up.

Dragi Morin
On the far East of Anthulíen is a huge mountainous region baring the name Dragi. It is rumored that atop of the highest mountain in the Dragi region lies Dragi Morin, the huge city of the ancient dragons. However the moutnains are as dangerous as they are deadly, from the many ventures trying to scale the mountains none has ever returnend, alive. So the rumor remains a rumor.
It is said that Dragi Morin is a beautifull city, in Roman style. The dragon population here is always exactly 100. So that they have no need in rebuilding their personal paridise. The biggest rumor of all is that the temple, where the dragons honor their gods, is made completly out of gold, silver and jewels.
