Intro: The continent of Sairum. Since the first light, Mythics, humans, creatures of the sea, always have shared the land. Wars come and go, Kingdoms, Queendoms, and countries rise and fall. Humans have spread throughout the land, Elves, Vampire, Fairies, all have had to accompany them on this journey. But Human nature always will prevail, Countries are on the brink of another war, Mercenaries scout the lands, Armies ready, but all within the delicate balance, The poor have been taking the toll and in all people within Sairum's boundaries. war may break out, they may fall into shattered shards of their former selves, or maybe they may just explode.
History: Saium was founded by the Kings of Aneil. Ever since the first light ( when the kings came upon the continent and introduced the human race to the land) they have had a fierce time trying to expand and populate with most of the non-human species. Hundreds of years had past, the kings fell, but their blood continued and spread thought-out the entirety of the continent.

Current state: The countries fight for land and minerals, The nobles wanting more and more. The regions are split mainly by Biome, Desert, Forest, plains, Mountains, Delta, and valley. Creatures of ones wildest imagination roam the world, but some more frequent and more abundant in other areas. Roads are dangerous, and Mercenaries roam about, other kingdoms build armies, while others try not to get caught in the middle.
