New Motto is famous for its beaches and it is a great way to relax for many a traveler. They also have one of the best inns and are dedicated to the beauty of their country both naturally and socially.

History of Ecrenion
In the time of which the ecrenions call 0 B.S. a great being floated in a spacious void. This being whom we came to call Ecrenion decided that he, like many other being, craved for children. Although a being of his immense power could not bear to simply raise one or two children; so he created three at first. The first he decided that he would give him intelligence above all else and named it "human". The second was to be strong and brave and thus he named it "slizian". The last was to be gentle and shy; he named this one "mozarah".
Upon seeing that the only thing that his children would do was squabble, their differences as a reason; Ecrenion decided that he would create more of their own kind so that they would have friends and others to whom they could relate to. He created so many of the different kinds that he decided to turn himself into their "playground" thus the creation of Ecrenion. In the years that came to pass, Ecrenion decorated his world with trees, animals and scenery. He also created an alternate world where the fallen of Ecrenion would go to rest, Llouras; and another were the wicked would be tortured for their sins upon death, Touras.
Eventually, as time passed two new races came to Ecrenion. Souls that resided in Touras managed to escape and embody themselves in Ecrenion, the nazur. Seeing as how they did not retain any memories of their wicked lives, Ecrenion allowed them to remain in his world. Another race crawled from the ocean to the surface, the kimodans. Not knowing the reason for their creation, Ecrenion let them live because they intrigued him and caught his interest.
As all beings do, the races of Ecrenion began to fight once again. Ecrenion knew that he could not continue to watch over all of them so he created various beings, which came to be known as the Great Spirits, to watch over his creations while he finally rested. This spirits would have influence over the creatures of Ecrenion in a particular area and would shape Ecrenion as they see fit.
Thanks to the Great Spirits the races of Ecrenion created their own civilizations and thrived in their own particular way.

Mysticism
Anyone with an adept mind can learn mysticism. When practicing mysticism one must bear in mind that an average student can only master one type of mysticism while masters have only reached two masteries. The types are divided into two parts: natural mysticism which was created by the mozahras, thus the reason for the use of the mozarick language and deals with nature itself, and energy mysticism that deals with manipulating energy and was created by the humans of Jordsir.
