 ===== Overview ===== ===== Overview =====
 Ruefang's climate is fairly diverse, ranging from a temperate forest in the north to vast, central plains to the tropical Laohu Forest in the south. To the east is the [[settings:cahyali:raikougan|Raikougan Archipelago]], a mostly temperate island group with an unusually stormy climate. There are two large lakes in Ruefang: Lake Xía, the larger of the two to the west, and Lake Xiu. The crescent-shaped landmass hugs the aptly named Sea of Fog, which is covered by thick mists. The wilds of Ruefang are nearly completely uninhabited due to the threat of unstable, magical leylines; the vast majority of the population resides in urban or suburban centers. Ruefang is loosely based on the real-world countries of China and Japan. Ruefang's climate is fairly diverse, ranging from a temperate forest in the north to vast, central plains to the tropical Laohu Forest in the south.
