Ûnduleah
Ûnduleah is a continent located in the northern hemisphere of the planet.
Oceans surround Ûnduleah. What lies to the north is unknown since the Icy Sea is frozen year-round, and is also covered in thick mist. To the east, west and south, the oceans reach too far for the ships of the inhabitants to sail. The world of Ûnduleah was, until about 200 years ago, too cold to sustain a large population. Few have tried to discover new worlds, and the fewer who returned found nothing other than a few small islands.

The silver rain warmed the world
Before the celestial event of the The Silver Rain, Ûnduleah's climate was quite cold. Only the farthest southern regions received enough warm air from the south sea to be free of ice year-round. During the Cold Age, small clans of dwarves lived near the volcanic regions where they could harness the heat from the lava rifts. After the Silver Rain, the heat pulsating from the Orange Pylon melted a lot of the ice on Ûnduleah, making its climate a lot warmer and more hospitable to Dwarves, humans, animals, monsters and vegetation. Many ecosystems collapsed, but new ecosystems are quickly emerging.The 5 regions
Even though Illinor is not technically connected via land, it is still considered to be part of Ûnduleah. The continent is roughly divided into 5 regions:Unem
The warm grasslands of Unem in the centre. The most densely populated region, home to the biggest city Keadin and the orange pylon.Ilinor
The cold, pine-covered lands of Ilinor in the north. Home to the Quoyah / Woodlanders and the Source Trees.Aachor
The diverse regions of Aachor to the east. Most of the oldest The settlements and customs of the dwarves are found here.Naash
The barren desert region of Naash in the south. Not much grows here, other than around the The Three View mountains.Dûnn
The dwarven-only populated Dûnn in the south-west. The dwarves here are more reclusive and do not like to deal with outsiders. Only at Trader's Lake they deal with outsiders. The Blue Pylon is found here, and using its power the Din dwarves managed to tame many wild beasts like the Burrowing Wyrm.Seasons
Ûnduleah knows 6 Kádi Calendar of the seasons. A cold season alternating a warmer season. During the deep cold of frostpeak, most creatures hibernate.Maps
