 ===== Geography =====
-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. The southern chain of islands is known as Osiris' Necklace. These islands are mostly small volcanic islands created over a very long time.

+==== 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.
