A Magical World


Hello,
I've been inspired by Lord of The Rings lately. You see, I have this nice map of Middle Earth, which looks really nice and old. That map gave me an idea to do my own map which you see here. Let me explain. So first, in the north we have the Orcs (Mer) who, after an evil spirit corrupted their very minds(he vowed revenge on Men, Elves and Dwarfs), decided to conquer the world. That's why the wall's there. Their capital is Beren-Dar, but the evil spirit prefers the Fire Fortress. Kishil- Kran is the farthest city north, and it looks like it's made of ice. Karkana Canyon is the deepest canyon in the world, and there all the "failed" mutations lurk. Moving out of Mer, we proceed to the Northern Isles. We have Death Island, which is surrounded by toxic green mist. Next is Magician Island where the best magic academies are.  Now, we sail to the west, to the Monster Isles. There, there are many different kinds of beasts, so it is best if we stay in the port. The only race which is not present here is the orcs. We now sail to Okista, the Kingdom of Men. Their only port is Mina. The Misty Marshes is a dangerous place where those who have died there lurk. The capital is Seta which is located near a forest. Twin rivers flow out of the mountains, Xsen and Orma, flowing into different seas.  Now we ride to the Iron Mountains of the Dwarfs(Irok)passing Lake Shuru and Lake Arman. The Dwarfs keep to themselves, although we owe them much. They invented fireworks and cannons which proved useful against the Orcs. They are now working on a new invention called the"pistol". Their capital is Roto. Let us now sail to the Island of Birds, but remember not to stray off from the group for they eat bigger  things than us. As we sail on, we shall see the southerners' (Ostara) cities. Their capital is Istabula. We see the the Black Desert which is named because of many desert grasshoppers that come here every year. The Barren Isles are the islands where pirates maroon their victims. We now sail to the Elves (Le-par). We shall see the Island of the Wild Men who mysteriously hold off any invasion. At last we arrive at Skarsha. The Le-par capital is Miksana which is surrounded by Bekar Forest. A river called Karer flows from the Albas Mountains. We have been everywhere, and seen everything and now it is time that you created your own world!(by the way, a nice variation that Father did:)
