  === Beag Isles ===  === Beag Isles ===
-Contrary to popular belief, "Beag Isles" actually means "little islands" in Vervish Ferric. North of the mainland is a group of islands that make up the Oileánach Province. Each of the isles contains at least one settlement with intricate roads of mossy stone leading to the settlement from the sea. The capital of the province is Paicoire.+Contrary to popular belief, "Beag Isles" actually means "little islands" in Vervish Geleik.

  === Cadeach Forest ===  === Cadeach Forest ===
 A dense forest that runs through the center of Vervand. The city is a beacon for [[lore:creatures:dreamt|fae]] and monstrous creatures. Many of the magical plants that Vervand is known for grow here, but fetching them is not an easy task. The capital of all Vervand lies on the other side of the Digonedd River: Glendyr. A dense forest that runs through the center of Vervand.

 The western edge of Vervand is characterized by a bay area constantly barraged by storms, heavy rains, thunder and lightning. Due to this the area is prone to flooding and tends to be rather muddy and difficult to traverse. This area is also populated by many divots in the ground filled with rainwater and surrounded by standing stones. This is the area that makes up the province of Kompezenn. The capital of Kompezenn is Guldiun. The western edge of Vervand is characterized by a bay area constantly barraged by storms, heavy rains, thunder and lightning.

 === Mordrik, the Lost Island === === Mordrik, the Lost Island ===
-Vervish history details an island once located to the south of the mainland, known as Mordrik. It was home to one of Vervand's founding tribes, but disappeared without fanfare nor reason on Irkusk 12, 4594 SF. Most have forgotten Mordrik ever existed, but some scholars still wonder as to where it went. In the late summer of 10081, [[history:cahyali:modernage#reappearance_of_mordrik_island|Mordrik reappeared,]] and is now considered an autonomous administrative division of Vervand with its own government and culture.+Vervish history details an island once located to the south of the mainland, known as Mordrik.

 Similar to other countries traditional Vervish culture was not completely lost during the Dahabi occupation, however, a lot more of it did disappear during it. As a result Vervish religion is ever changing as it is a meld of 3 religious practices, Vervish druidism, Dahabi worship, and Ninite worship. Though druidic faith has been on the rise as time goes on and more relics of the past are discovered.  Similar to other countries traditional Vervish culture was not completely lost during the Dahabi occupation, however, a lot more of it did disappear during it.

-The most commonly worshiped Cahyalic gods are [[gods:tarus|Thoth]], [[gods:orus|Arakh]], [[gods:osiris|Osiris]], [[gods:neptune|Vahrun]], and [[gods:anubis|Anpu]]. While other gods are respected, they see much less worship in this country and priests of them are rare, and notably worship of Anpu is more similar to the Jearnian aspect Anubis than the Cahyalic Anpu.+The most commonly worshiped Cahyalic gods are [[gods:tarus|Thoth]], [[gods:orus|Arakh]], [[gods:osiris|Osiris]], [[gods:neptune|Vahrun]], and [[gods:anubis|Anpu]].

 Many different druidic circles exist, each tracing their roots back to one of the original tribes of Vervand. These druids are often wielders of spiritual power, capable of crafting incants and communing with beings from beyond the pale. Many different druidic circles exist, each tracing their roots back to one of the original tribes of Vervand.
