|History====Formation===

According to the cosmology of [[Adaris]], Arezilur was formed when the primordial spirits [[Yavi]] and [[Yairan]] combined to bring forth Arihis, one of the first [[Ascendant Spirit|Ascendant Spirits]]. Arihis embodies ~~the concept of~~ wind-eroded earth and is associated with erosion, illusion, and transformation. During the [[Great Erosion]], winds carved the desert from land that had once been connected to [[Khamria]].

|Geography={{main|Geography of Arezilur}}

Arezilur is bordered by Khamria to the southwest, [[Orinilure]] to the west and northwest, and [[Jesselsom]] to the east, with ocean to the north and south. The [[Aurită Mountains]] form the divide between Arezilur and Orinilure.

The interior ~~of the region~~ is dominated by the Dune Sea, an expanse of sand dunes that shift continuously with the desert winds. Some dunes reach considerable heights, and their movement makes navigation difficult. To the east lies the [[Beilisia]], or Glass Fields, a subregion of glass ridges and plains formed by intense heat from neighboring Jesselsom. Within the Beilisia rise the Beilisco Mountains, whose name means "Glass Mountains," a range of glass spires. The Beilisia is the principal source of ~~the region's~~ raw glass and obsidian.

[[Attemberta]] lies west of the dunes and is the last major settlement before the desert. [[Gristilia]], the region's only major port, is located in the east, south of the Beilisia, on the border of the peninsula containing Jesselsom. [[Arihis's Quarry]], a mining settlement, lies within the Beilisia north of Gristilia. [[Mireria]], a city that moves within the Dune Sea, serves as a cultural and spiritual center for the region's inhabitants.
