The Great System The original grand but secretive city of the mecha-gnomes, located deep inside the mountain, at the inner north-western section of The Three Brothers’ Mountains, vaguely between the cities of Mane and Nara. It was besieged by the dungeon lords after their conquest and slaughter of the humans and the dwarves. The city’s population was doomed to annihiliation, but The Betrayal of Shoss, a former dungeon lord who refused to let her own people be massacred in the fighting, lead to the mecha-gnomes fleeing The Great System to set up The Iron City. Today, The Great System is a place of goblins, trolls and elementals, and the dungeon of a powerful dungeon lord duo of a mad mecha-gnome wizard and his loyal dwarven witch. The Iron City (a.k.a. Mecha-Gnomish Quarter) A large neighborhood hugely dominated by a mecha-gnomish population which favors multifloored buildings and sees iron as the ultimate building material, using it whenever they can afford it. This neighborhood is known for many of its engineering quirks, such as a large underground network of paths and the locomotives that transports its inhabitants between the different parts of the neighborhood, including all the way to the city wall. It is situated south-east of the city wall, and relatively close to the main highway out of Ermos City. The Little Mountain (a.k.a. The Dwarven Quarters) A neighborhood dominated by a small mountain peak. The mountain has been hollowed out with corridors, rooms and mountain halls made by dwarves wishing to live inside it. However, a sizeable dwarven population also surrounds the foot of the mountain since it’s not large enough to host them all. The Little Mountain lies further east of The Iron City. The Mainpipe Industrial Town A former surface-level mecha-gnomish town siutation inland from The Great System. The town is now a ghost town, completely abandoned, as its buildings are mostly unsuitable for anyone but gnomes to dwell inside, most of whom have abandoned The Three Brothers’ Mountains altogether. The town is occassionally looted for scrap metals, as like The Iron City, metals like iron are widely used in anything from construction to various machines and installations. The Marble Streets A district of Ermos City for the rich and powerful. It is mostly inhabited by humans, but there are also urbans elves there, dwarves and mecha-gnomes. Its name is derived from the large amount of marble used to decorate its resident’s homes and businesses. Doctor Sharam has his clinic here. The Merry Pond A pond in the northern part of The City Forest. The Minotaur’s Feast The tavern where Rum first meets Amez after 6 years apart. The North Peak A tall mountain in the far north rumored to be inhabited by a group of old powerful deities. The Raven’s Slum A great slum inside of the city walls of Ermos City, slightly south and slightly west of the city center. The Sanctuary Mountain A mountain in Adalwey, high upon which is The City of Ages. The Thousand Flowers A great tree in The City Forest serving as the bank of the green-elves. The Three Brothers Mountains A tripple of mountains south of The Lands of Ermos, west of The Giant Forest of Melrum, north of Agadeya and The Kingdom of Meya, and east of The Wild Corridor. The Axe Mountains are also situated to its south-west, across a minor forest. The tripple of mountains are arranged in the form of 2 bending mountains, like quarters of a circle, mirroring each other, with one to the north and one to the south, only a narrow gap between them. The last mountain meanwhile lay between them, creating thus an interior that goes from The City of Nara to the north, to The City of Mane to the west, and to The City of Valorum to the south. Each city historically protecting and controlling each of their gaps into the mountain tripple and its interior. With Nara and Valorum controlling the large northern and southern gaps respectively, while Mane controlled the narrow western gap. While The Three Brothers Mountains are most known for their human cities, and occassionally their dwarven settlements up in the mountains themselves, the area has also been populated by a range of kin living in more relative isolation and secrecy. From the mecha-gnomes, with their Great System, to the isolated forest burrows of the wild gnomes, to similarly isolated forest villages of green-elves and dark-elves. There has also been an historically peaceful presence of trolls there, before most of them aligned with the dungeon lords. The Tower of Ages (a.k.a. The Great Tower of The City of Ages) A tall stone tower in The City of Ages with many floors, and where each floor had its own large encircling terrace. The Vibrant Moon The smaller of the two moons orbiting the planet and world of Aclima. It is rumored that the sibling gods Naghmath and Trivili reside here. The Vroovroo Subterrainian Town A former mecha-gnomish town in The Three Brothers Mountains, situated at the opposite side of The Great System, near a hidden entrance at the north-west base of the central mountain, placing it overall closer to centerpoint between Nara and Valorum. The Wild Corridor A long wide strip of land, located to the north of The Axe Mountains, west of The Desolate Lands, and south-west of The Lands of Ermos. The area separates the ocean from The Desolate Lands, and consists of forests, numerous fishing villages, guild strongholds and small fortified towns. It’s strategically important as a land bridge between Ermos and the south, such as The Axe Mountains, The Kingdom of Meya, and beyond. It also confines The Desolate Lands and the dungeon lords to land, denying them ports, ships and ocean travel. The Yellow Bushes The area of The City Forest within which Great Spruce lies. The Young Mountains (a.k.a. The Dwarven States) A long mountain chain to the east of The Giant Forest of Melrum, and thus to the east of both The Lands of Ermos and The Desolate Lands as well. The place is home to one of Aclima’s largest populations of dwarves, reaching into the millions, and spread across political entities. Most populous of which are the dwarven republics, like The Republic of Motharan, which are based around a socialdemocratic model of governance. Then there are a number of smaller town and village-level settlements in the form of the homes of the dwarven clans. Some such homes are inhabited by single clans, and others by a few clans each. The dwarven clan system based around the election of a clan leader, which has limited powers to lead and govern the clan. In clan homes with multiple clans, these clan leaders form councils. Lastly, there are a few petty kingdoms of dwarves, where the king or queen is elected from among the family members of the previous king or queen, as such mixing elements of both heriditary and elective monarchy. The petty kingdoms are, as their names indicate, rather small and economically insignificant, and their kings have been struggling to stay relevant in the current age of dwarven republicanism. The war against the dungeon lords have, however, given the petty kingdoms a renewed sense of purpose, as their royal families rallied dwarves around expeditionary warfare, while the republics and clans focused on peaceful support. Town of Morn An ancient former town in Adalwey. Noteable for being a place long ago, where the god Urn, The Master of Earth, is said to have given its people the ability to call forth magic powers. Making Morn the first known location where magic, as it is mostly known today, was practiced. The town no longer exists, its exact location forgotten with the times, as it was destroyed in The Grand War of The South and never settled again. Wild-Gnomish Quarter An enclave within The City Forest inhabited by wild-gnomes, who live in burrows underground hidden within bushes.
