Edge Lands

The Edge Lands are the mytho-geographic lands, said to lie beyond the four oceans surrounding the Civilised World.

They were named by the ancient Miyarrain. Zahkdarret lies to the west of Anásthiasplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigAnásthias

Anásthias [a-NAS-thee-ass / ænæsθiːæs], or [an-ass-THEE-as] is an equatorial island continent, heart of the Civilised World. The north straddles the equator and is hot and humid, while most of the equatorial centre is an upland plateau with fertile river valleys, and stretches of arid plains and desert in the shadow of the mountains. The south is temperate but more wild, separated from the civilisations of the north by the almost impassable Harthera, and Retzayk to the east. The cold north is called the Icerealm, the south being the Icehorns.

These names are used in official maps and academic works, but little used in everyday speech.
