[break][break]Forests, clans, villages, towns, cities, fallen empires-- the world of Lalonia is vast, yet each and every soul here plays out their role in it.[break]
Technology on Lalonia may not be as advanced as our modern day, but they're getting there. With magic prominent on Lalonia, technological advances have been stunted for preference of reliability on their innate abilities. A jail in Tempestclan operates by magic binding their prisoners within, physics quickly weave fabrics together for new clothing, fire abilities are called upon for warming evening meals, ect.[break]
Yet, not very long ago, all of Tempestclan were living out of tents and small makeshift structures. Nowadays their clan is thriving, an entire community of cottages and even a decently-sized church made by their own. Progress in the last 13 years [break][break][break]

[break][break]One can think of a clan as a smaller, more familial version of a village. They truly take the saying "it takes a village" quite literally. Each clan has their own version of a leader and second, yet these titles vary from each clan itself; in most instances, seconds are called deputies. From there roles are split depending on the clan, each with their own ideas and inner workings. Generally, the most common role titles are warriors, hunters, [break][break][break][break][break]
The layout of the clans which truly matter are as such:[break]
In the west, one can find Tempestclan,Maelstromclan, Galeclan, and Infernoclan.[break][break][break]
Tempestclan is An average-sized clan with stone houses, gardens, barns and the like. One can also find a prison, church, and cemetery here. If you know the Warrior Cat books, think of their territory like Thunderclan. Woodsy but not a jungle, however rich in resources that border other clans, sometimes posing conflict. They are the newest of the established clans, with their claim to the territory 14 years to current day. They are the northern most of the Western clans.[break][break]
Maelstromclan was likewise woodsy, before the fire completely decimated it into ashes. Structures have been unnaturally turned to mere rubble, with only its multiple caverns revealing any form of prior clan life. This clan was completely assassinated, however its attackers have yet to be identified. Now the clan territory is vacant, awaiting one of the bordering clans to add it to their home-- or another rival group entirely to set claim. They are the Southern most of the Western clans.[break]
In the past, Maelstromclan was the most aggressive of the western clans, often challenging other clans for resources and forced work. These activities have calmed ever since Tempestclan stepped in to negotiate terms. It's been several years since this agreement, yet neither looked eager to break their word. Maelstromclan itself is the youngest of the four western clans.[break][break]
Galeclan is the smallest of the four clans in terms of population, however they have occupied their territory longer than either of the two prior clans. "True paradise" is how Galeclan is described, with an oasis found in their dense woods along with large open space as far east as they feel safe traveling. [break][break][break]
Solarisclan finds itself situated deep within thick forest and underbrush, slightly southwest of Lunarisclan. The clan's main camp lies high within the tallest known trees; well above ground to hide from invasive enemies. Similarly, false camps are planted around the territory to fool others and keep stray wanderers away. Most high homes are decorated in vines, flowers, and other plant life to both conceal them, but also keep spirits high with vibrant color. Each housing unit is connected by camouflaged bridges leading in different directions, with short walkways around each building. Members usually climb retractable ladders and ropes to traverse their housing and the ground. When a member of the clan becomes too old to traverse the climb, they usually remain the rest of their lives far above ground in the comfort of their homes, properly cared for by the clan's youth.
[break]This clan is much more efficient when it comes to easily replaceable resources such as wild game, berries, plants, and crops. Crafters mostly build using wood and mud bricks, as that's the frame for all their decorative tree homes. Correspondingly, their focus strays from ore collecting necessary for crafting, as they hardly have the ordinary means to do so.[break][break]
Lunarisclan is positioned inside the high mountain, northeast of Solarisclan. Its territory is located inside dozens of caverns with an intricate layout that is practically tattooed into every member's mind from a very young age. This clan is much more efficient with ores to help with crafting however Littoria is able to sufficiently sustain their demand for berries and plants. Most Lunarisclan items are created with Iron and Steel; This includes their weapons, armor, and general day to day items. Due to DaiFuyu's teachings, Lunarisclan's way of life consists of a very collaborative and religious mindset. It is not unusual to find several members praying at Littoria or the Lunaris Waterfall.
[break]The cave systems are pretty elaborate and very easy to get lost in, a wrong turn and one could end up at a four-way dead end and forget how to go back to safety. General caves of members, such as a typical warrior or mender, mostly consists of a sheet that offers the member privacy at the entrance of their cave. Some Lunarisclan members prefer having an actual door which are usually made of Bronze. Once inside, most of them have the bare necessities such as a lamp, a very generic bed and a set of tables and chairs. The only differences would be the leaders of the class and DaiFuyu herself making their cave dwelling more homely.

[break][break]Where does one end up after death? Either they find themselves as a translucent soul, recruited to the Beyond, or they find themselves at the end of a hook, dragged down into the Abyss with all their sensory nerves still intact.[break][break]
The Beyond extends its realm in many shades of green, with its residents
The Abyss is a realm nearly the size of Lalonia itself. With a sun that never sets overhead, residents of the Abyss have adapted to the intense heat. Most opt to wear conservative-like clothes with a provocative spin. [break]
The only notable space in the Abyss is the Castle and road of businesses which extend from it. There, one can find everything from a dueling arena to a gambler's nest, high-class restaurants, clothing stores, and whatever else one might desire. While there are a few staple stores on this road, many go under, with another shop taking its place soon after.[break]
