 //What happens when you take the setting from the Jaern manual and let adventurers go crazy on it for a few real years? Well... lots of death, chaos and destruction and the birth of a little hamlet called Rougtero. Rougtero is the main adventurering town on Lojem Island.//

+The Rhine Archipelago is located 2 months to the northeast of Lojem. Ageron is located 3 months to the south-southwest. Kratal is located 5 months either east or west, as it is nearly exaclty on the opposite side of Jaern. Much of the mainland of Lojem is either a rocky part of the volcano, covered in the dense forests of the west, or is part of the flat sprawling plains of the east.
+==== Regions ====
+There are four major regions of the Lojem isles.
+=== Mount Fajro ===
+The central area of Lojem's mainland Mount Fajro is a major volcano that likely created the island chain. The volcano has been dormant for a very long time, but its activity from a time long ago has created fertile soil for farmlands, allowing civilization to prosper in a place many would consider dangerous. Just be sure to watch your step, as the mountain can be quite steep and jagged. [[settings:jaern:lojem:rougtero|Rougtero]] can be found just below the mountain's southern face.
+=== The Eastern Plains ===
+The eastern half of the Lojem mainland is covered in sprawling grasslands that extend for as far as the eye can see. It is home to the Eastern Shores Coalition, whose capital is the city of Eastend. The flatlands are easy to traverse, making travel very easy, even relaxing to many. Hikers are common through the area.
+=== The Western Forests ===
+The western half of the Lojem mainland is covered in a very dense forest. This large area was elvish territory for a very long time, and only recently has begun to open its borders a bit, especially since many cities in the area joined as part of the Rougtero League.
+=== Osiris' Necklace ===
+A nickname for the chain of islands that make up the southern parts of the Lojem region, Osiris' Necklace is home to the Southern Unity. The island chain was once held together by a great wall holding back the ocean and keeping Karfelon safe. A few decades ago, however, the sea wall was partially destroyed, leaving these disparate island unconnected for a long time. The region is mostly made of small volcanic islands similar to Mount Fajro. Some think that they all may connect to Mount Fajro if one were to dig deep enough.

 ==== The Eastern Shores Coalition ====
-The Eastern Shores State was a country formed by the city of Eastend in order to combat the economic power of the Rougtero League. The coalition is very close. Attempts to compete with Rougtero hegemony have been surprisingly successful, though how long it will last is unknown. The land itself is very flat and grassy, making it perfect for farmland.

 The population is mostly humans, dwarves, and orcs. Paroli is the main language spoken here.

 ==== The Southern Unity ====
-The Southern Unity is a land in the south of Lojem, making up the chain of islands known as Osiris' Necklace. Recently, a form of flying machines have been created to assist in public transportation across the chain of islands. The Southern Unity is known for its emphasis on art and scholarship. Though, corruption still abounds in the chain of islands...

 The population is surprisingly cosmopolitan compared to the rest of Lojem. The language spoken there is Paroli, with exception to the city of Tolenice, where the people primarily speak Ferric.

-The Miriton Tower - What remains of this ancient building can be seen barely escaping the waters of Lake Alfrego. The rest of the tower lies deep underwater. This is likely for the best given the terrible experiments done here over a century ago. Currently, the area is a complete dead zone for magic.

-**[[settings:jaern:lojem:the_random_encounter|The Random Encounter Tavern]]** isn't actually located on Lojem island, but the main entry way is a psionic teleportation circle located at the former location of the Portal Farm (known as Port Senfinico).
