World Overview Two nations dominate the region: Virelia, a diverse, matriarchal realm of sensuality and magic, and Drosvane, a rigid, puritanical, patriarchal empire. The Veil Range mountains form the border, with the Moonpass as the only major trade route. ⸻ Virelia – Matriarchal & Sensual Government: High Matrons’ Council, each Matron leading a powerful family line with political and spiritual authority. Culture: Values beauty, fertility, cunning, sensuality. Sexuality is celebrated in life and ritual; festivals are colorful, with music, dance, and magic. Clothing is bright silk, flowing, and adorned with jewels. Population: Humans of varied ethnicities; elves with floral tattoos that bloom when casting magic; satyrs, nymphs, orcs & half-orcs (nonbinary/female orcs highly revered), harpy traders. Gender Norms: Trans & nonbinary people honored as spiritually gifted; genderfluid leaders common; pronoun sigils worn openly; flexible marriage forms. Creatures: Silk-wyrms (magical silk), moonmoths (glowing, rideable), garden serpents (glamour magic). Magic: Common and celebrated, especially glamour, fertility, and healing. Geography: Sirevale (capital port), Silk-Wyrm Coast (silk farms), Auric Fields (fertile plains), Lunesset (border city, queer hub), Mistwood Forest (moonmoth breeding). ⸻ Drosvane – Prudish & Militaristic Government: High Purity Assembly, all-male noble council enforcing morality and magic control. Culture: Chastity, obedience, order; arranged marriages; public affection banned; plain dress; cities in rigid grids. Population: Majority humans; dwarves (metallurgy, defense magic), minotaurs (military/labor), tieflings (oppressed/exiled). Gender Norms: Trans & nonbinary identities suppressed; underground queer networks exist, esp. near border; some hide gender to evade conscription. Creatures: Steelclaw gryphons (war mounts), chastity ravens (detect lust), ash hounds (track contraband magic). Magic: Licensed and limited to “pure” uses—agriculture, protective wards, healing; glamour/enchantment banned. Geography: Brighthold (fortress capital), Iron Marches (mines, dwarves), Puregrain Basin (farming hub), Halvren (border gate), Gryphon Crags (gryphon roosts). ⸻ Veil Range Jagged mountains forming the natural border; Moonpass is the sole caravan route, heavily fortified. Legends speak of sleeping dragons deep within. ⸻ Trade & Travel Virelia: Sea Silk Route (luxury exports to islands/deserts), Border Road (Lunesset ↔ Halvren, legal + smuggling). Drosvane: Iron Road (steel, grain to Virelia), Purity Road (grain to southern ports). ⸻ Cross-Border Dynamics Cultural clash: Virelia’s openness vs. Drosvane’s repression. Moonmoths killed on sight in Drosvane. Faith and contraband smuggled via harpies and tieflings. Border towns are flashpoints for trade, cultural exchange, and conflict.
