Payalwa

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.

Early Inhabitants edit

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 edit

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.

Regions edit

Payalwa is geographically divided into two main regions, the Eastern Highlands and the Western Lowlands. The Eastern Highlands are rocky foothills of the Murzakar mountain range, while in the Western Lowlands, the majority of the realm of Payalwa consists of swampy peat bogs.

Climate edit

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.
