Kamieji Archipelago

The Kamieiji Archipelago can be found in the middle of the Blood Sea. It contains some thirty islands, four of which were large enough for human settlement.

GEOGRAPHY

The archipelago was once a solid landmass upon which an ancient unknown nation of elves drew power from the Fontei aep Arenatha, a channeling fountain built over one of several rips in reality from which vast amounts of potent magical energy leaks from the Twisting Nether. The elves grew addicted to the constant magic to the point where they drew too greedily and caused a cataclysmic overload, sending the fountain and the entire elven civilization to the depths below, spearing a deep tunnel that extends one-seventh into the planet’s crust.

Left with physically dead bodies but minds preserved by the magical connection fused by manacaust, they magically adapted their bodies to become naga and have spent the past four millennia attempting to escape from their watery prison. The ruins of the unknown capital city still stand around the shattered fountain; but now it is called Nagakov.

HABITATION

The remaining major islands of Taisho, Narasuka, Heijon, and Yazuchi are all home to human clans of the same name and are ruled by the Kamieji Shogunate. An authoritarian caste-based feudal society, the islands are currently ruled by Shoguna Asakira of clan Taisho.

All Kamieiji are philoticly connected through what they believe is the spiritual worship of the Seikato Tsunaga spiritlink but is actually a supramagical phenomenon that resides within the Kami Chitsu, a deep gash in the center of the archipelago that the Kameiji believe is endless.
