Chapter 2
ElderFain
This chapter doesn't need to be read but will help the reader to understand the chapters after it.
Unknown to most owls was that beyond the southern mountains were a far stranger group of kingdoms called the ElderFain. Or in the common tongue, the far south. There are seventeen kingdoms in ElderFain but the most important to the upcoming events are; Korvek, Maleform, Beshcra, Tarses, Gylnol and Furis.
Korvek is in the low foothills of the southern mountains but the altitude is still quiet high. The population of this kingdom is low but they are one of the few ElderFain kingdoms to have an army.
Maleform is a small kingdom that's main feature is an old destroyed "other" city. All of the population of Maleform are bats making it the only kingdom were there are no birds.
Beshcra was once the source of all evil in ElderFain but in recent times has had a stable government and is one of the only southern kingdoms with an army. Its north side borders the end of the mountains and beyond the beyond.
Tarses runs along the western coast and the Cakleen peninsula and is almost completely populated by seabirds.
Gylnol this is a very small kingdom made up of Derg Mountain where all the inhabitants live in a small tight nit community. Which is coincidently were this story begins.
Furis is merely the Kuneer deserts extension into ElderFain.
ElderFain has only two connections with the owl kingdoms. One of them is the Beshcra, Tarses and the beyond the beyond border, and the other is the Kuneer canyon that runs all the way through the mountains from south kuneer to north Furis. The south mountains are actually part of the Carteesean Mountains but nobody has ever flown along them to see.
-Authors notes-
This chapter simply tells the reader of the lands to the south of the owl kingdoms which are very important in the story.
