The Southern Continent is a patchwork of lands, and from time to time, these lands reshuffle in a Great Land Migration. Maps are taboo here, and their utility may be questionable given the shuffling. Some of the first visitors from the North to the South wrote about it in a famous work known as The Mysteries of the Southern Continent.

During a Great Migration, the ability to use any interdimensional travel (ie Teleport) from one land to another is blocked. This continues for six months after the Migration occurred. Some sages theorize that this happens because the patchwork lands of the Southern Continent are literally in different dimensions during a Great Migration. Others think their colleagues are crazy, because even in the middle of a Migration, people have been known to fly or even jump from one land to another if the lands were close enough!

The Gods of the Wold and the Gods of Testing are mostly unknown here, but the people honor a range of greater and lesser powers instead.

Some of the lands of the South include:

Gateway Downs

Heranmar

Hook City

Ice Vein

The Sargrass Plains
