The Southern

Location

The Southern lies in the south of the mainland of Alteron.

The Southern Snowtop is the south pole of the world, a mountainous land with permanent snow and ice .





History

As old as the Old Age, the Southern only became an official land in 4.942, when the Kingdom High border got awfully close and the need to establish their own borders got important.

The Southern has always been ruled by small warbands. It used to be small in population, as the lands are hostile. However, over the years more and more people who were unhappy about the hierarchy and rules of Kingdom High started flooding into the Southern.

In the Southern, everyone is free. They care little for the higher lands, but they do realize the scum of the world often ends up in the Southern.

Because people can find strenght in numbers, the Southern does have several large villages, but these too are without any form of official leadership <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Arial;font-size:15px;white-space:pre-wrap;line-height:1.15;">.
