Elemia
[Elemia originally from ArTonelico.]
Elemia, the only land in Cameanthul that belongs to elves, and elves only. Located in the east, it's an oldr part of the world, mostly with rich cities and big forests. Doesn't seem to blend together, does it? But these are elves we're talking about, everything seems to be possible for them. Elemia is surrounded by two mountain range, which form a valley known as the Icewind Dale. And trust me, it is very cold down there, and very hard to cross alone. Thanks to this valley, Elemia has been isolated from other parts of Cameanthul, and thus has pretty much no idea what is going on at the other side.
Main Cities
In Elemia, there are two big cities, the rest are smaller ones and less important ones. And they are usually connected to the biggest cities thanks to the many small but helpful rivers. The biggest city, also the capital of Elemia, is Rosariya. Very well known from the fact that the elves living there have never known or heard the word 'poor'. Everything there is made with the most expensive material you can imagine. The people of Rosariya don't hesitate in using, for example, silver and gold when building houses, since they have such great resources (Icewind Dale*).
The second biggest city is Moonshae, and it is situated quite far away from Rosariya and the other cities. Still, it's a big one. Moonshae is near the innermost mountain range, a city made of silver and ice. Literally. While Rosariya could be described as a city with warm colors, like gold, blood red satin, Moonshae is the complete opposite with all those cold colours. Blue, silver, white, grey and black. Since they are complete opposites, these two cities tend to have fights against each other. And can't get along, at all. The weather is very different in both of them too: you'll never see a gray or rainy day in Rosariya, while in Moonshae it is always either raining or snowing or a thick mist.
Rosariya's minor cities: « Narfell » - « City built especially for Rosariya's army. » « Luskan » - « A port city, nothing very special. »
Moonshae's minor cities: « Escalanth » - « City of the Gods, or so the rumors say. » « High Ice » - « A city far up on the mountains, official entrance to Elemia. »
Icewind Dale
Icewind Dale, the icy and cold valley everyone has to cross in order to get to Elemia. The official entrance if High Ice, the last mountain peak before the icy steps leading down to Moonshae and finally to Elemia. The Icewind Dale holds a few dark secrets of a lower God under Elernia. His name changes quite often, in Rosariya he is known as Lucius or Lucifer and in Moonshae he is known as Sinner. I will call him has Sinner, since it's far more easier to type. Anyway, there are no towns or cities in that valley, because of the tough weather and the rumors about Sinner. Still some people come here in order to get their hands on the diamonds, gold, silver you can find here.
