-Moderately sized town in the northern point of the island, holds significant cultural value as it was the capital of the island under Dahabi rule many thousands of years prior, with a few structures from said time still intact. It is without a doubt the oldest of all the towns in the island, holding an expansive history. Today, it is predominantly focused on forms of art, music, and more creative fields.+Moderately sized town in the northern point of the island, holds significant cultural value as it was the capital of the island under [[settings:cahyali:dahabu|Dahabi]] rule many thousands of years prior, with a few structures from said time still intact.

-Three towns located within the northwest that extend south, with the end being Nakano. These towns are heavily military based, constantly housing troops from the Shogunate military. Troops from through the Raikougan often train here, making these towns highly relevant to military matters.+Three towns located within the northwest that extend southward. These towns are heavily military based, constantly housing troops from the Shogunate military. Troops from through the Raikougan often train here, making these towns highly relevant to military matters. Additionally, after the destruction in Juuken, Warlord Kentarō set up factories in these towns, leading to a boom in industry and population after refugees fled the destruction to here.

 The current warlords of the island, the Kentarōs are a blended family of halflings and draconic lizards, formed from the union of Kentarō Ryuji and June, a Ley'Orkian immigrant. They are well known for being skilled fighters, with many Kentarō scions joining the military or training in the magical arts. This skill has been needed, however: after the decline of the Raiden family, the Kentarōs found the duty of fending off the Blood Hawks on their shoulders. The current warlords of the island, the Kentarōs are a blended family of halflings and draconic lizards, formed from the union of Kentarō Ryuji and June, a Ley'Orkian immigrant.

-This family has suffered significant loss due to their position. During the fall of Toyeto in 10035, Kentarō Oza, the brother to Kentarō Ryuji, fell to the hands of the 17th Kasha. This event changed Ryuji’s priorities of defense to become relegated to only the island's most important cities. Then, as of 10081, Kentarō Ryuji was killed by the pirate Ryosuke.+This family has suffered significant loss due to their position. During the fall of Toyeto in 2511, Kentarō Oza, the brother to Kentarō Ryuji, fell to the hands of the 17th Kasha.

 The current leader is Kentarō Ryou, a draconic halfling and adventurer. He took over in name after the death of his father, Ryuji, but many of the family's affairs are being run by June until Ryou is ready to take on the responsibility of rulership. The current leader is Kentarō Ryou, a draconic halfling and adventurer.

-Beginning their significance in around 8560 SF as a response to the Bloodhawks, the Raiden family were notable protectors of Ryushu island in the Raikougan. Their prominence came from their "Lightning and Thunder" style of combat, giving them an uncanny ability to adapt and swap battle tactics.+

 +Beginning their significance in the mid-1030s SD as a response to the Bloodhawks, the Raiden family were notable protectors of Ryushu island in the Raikougan. Their prominence came from their "Lightning and Thunder" style of combat, giving them an uncanny ability to adapt and swap battle tactics.
  
 Their fall from grace came from a duel over the warlordship between the Kentaros. The head of the Raiden family of the time, Raiden Noboru, was defeated in a duel with both Kentaro Ryuji and Kentaro Oza. His defeat at the time came as a shock to many. Their fall from grace came from a duel over the warlordship between the Kentaros.

 Originally smiths of Azuma, this family of elves were some of the original creators of the town of Toyeto. It was there that their prominence in the field of metalworking began, as they would work one of the most potent forges in the world. This would propel them into a significant position in politics within Toyeto being a part of the town's industrial union.  Originally smiths of Azuma, this family of elves were some of the original creators of the town of Toyeto.

 With the fall of Toyeto, much beyond this is unknown about them.

 === The Militaristic Northwest === === The Militaristic Northwest ===
 The towns that lie in the northwest of Ryushu are often housing and supporting large military forces, to the point where they have been ingrained into their culture. This region is considered the safest in the island, as there have been no successful attacks here since the time of the Kasha. The towns that lie in the northwest of Ryushu are often housing and supporting large military forces, to the point where they have been ingrained into their culture.

 +Additionally, with major populations of Juuken moving here, the cultural differences between the two islands have begun to clash. Many of those that lived in this region before the war scoff at the thought that a life in industry could possibly be compared in value to that in military service. This sentiment has increased tension in the area with consequences that are yet to be seen.

 Residing in the mountains, these people have not lived under fear of raids or attacks from the outside world. Because of this, they are much more peaceful, and unlike the rest of the Raikougan, training the young to fight is optional and typically up to the parents discretion. Residing in the mountains, these people have not lived under fear of raids or attacks from the outside world.
