Introduction:
'''Payalwa''' is the realm of swamps and bogs located on the southwestern side of the continent of [[Elemara]] in [[Orethil]]. It is the realm of the spirit [[Moevre]], the spirit of mystery and uncertainty, and [[Tragget]], the spirit of bogs and swamps.
History:
=== Early Inhabitants === Payalwa was originally inhabited by the race of [[Olsendi]], a small swamp-adapted otter-like creature who lived in small swampy villages scattered around the Payalwa lowlands. Olsendi society is decentralized and tribal in nature. === Human Migration and the Morusi === When humans migrated to the area, they eventually became known as the [[Morusi]]. Over generations, the Olsendi were slowly displaced as the Morusi continued to spread out across the land. As the Morusi grew in strength, the oppression of the Olsendi continued, resulting in the creation of a large reservation in the north-west.
Geography:
=== Regions === Payalwa is geographically divided into two main regions, the [[Eastern Highlands]] and the [[Western Lowlands]]. The Eastern Highlands are rocky foothills of the [[Murzkar Mountains|Murzakar mountain range]], while in the Western Lowlands, the majority of the realm of Payalwa consists of swampy peat bogs. === Climate === [[File:Winter_in_Payalwa.jpg|thumb|Winter in the [[Singing Swamp]]]] Payalwa has two distinctive climate regions. The western lowland has long winters with extended freezing periods. The eastern highlands are milder, mist-laden, and temperate. === Flora and Fauna === {{see also|Flora and Fauna of Payalwa}} [[File:Panten_Male_01.jpg|thumb|A male Panten wanders through Payalwa]] Pantens - Large mammals created with wide hooves that can easily cross marshy peat. Jacas - Reptilian swamp dwellers. Turfels - Wolf-like swamp hunters. Bedunge - Large dangerous insects
Goverment and Politics:
Payalwa is under the jurisdiction of the [[League of Payalwa]]. The league consists of four states, one territory, and the Olsendi Reservation.
Economy:
It is a resource‑heavy realm, and much of its economy is centered around those resources. Mining in the green highlands, forestry, as well as the collection of rare and valuable medicinal herbs in the various swamps through Payalwa.
Demographics:
The majority of Payalwa is Morusi, although some smaller ethnic groups live in the port cities. The original inhabitants, the Olsendi, are few in number and confined to the reservation, as well as a few free colonies in the [[Murzak Wilds]].
Culture:
Native Spirits:
