Continent of Cloudia- Post convergance
The foreseen time of darkest skies had come and the followers of the usurper gods moved in great numbers. As the great and terrible avatars of the usurpers walked the lands once more, the old clans came together for the first time since the pact. As one they raised a call to the lady of the hearth and mountains Hiatea. Answering the plea for protection and sanctuary she sculpted the land as a potter works soft clay. Reworking the land to protect her people from the ravages of the hordes of the usurpers. From the broken un-teathred lands she formed three great islands, from the coast the great mountain wall and a lush basin in the center to provide for the needs of the Klein-peoples, choosing in her great wisdom not to abandon them. and so with the help of the goddess Hiatea a new nation was formed from this once broken land. The frost giants were given charge of the moutian wall and domain over any who entred their lands. The cloud , Fire and stone giants were each granted an island in the sky to hold dominion over and the Klein-peoples were given the basin provided they swore allegiance to one of the great families. IN return the great ones swore to listen to their words and rule justly. As the planes separated the goddess left them with her blessing and so the new land of cloudia was formed and shaped by the goddesses hand.During the convergence the Giants enlisted the help of one of their old gods to reshape the land they call home. Protecting it from the wars of the other countries and further isolating it from the world at large. The land shifted with tall imposing mountains rising along its borders. The broken floating land was partially reformed in to large floating islands that hover above the lowlands and connect to the mountain border. These islands make up the state of Erhoben-land and are over seen by the few remaining giant families, Each one controlling one of the large islands. The lowlands make up the state of Tiefebene, and have a more diverse population. There are a few remaining entry ways in to the continent of Cloudia but they are largely isolationist who are mistrustful of strangers.

Culture
Though the cultures of Cloudia are diverse there are a few major threads that run through them all. Everywhere there are dedications to the giant goddess Hiatea who shaped the land to protect the people. every year there is a week long festival beginning on the 9th day of flocktime. during this time all are welcome on the giants islands and all disputes between people are set aside during the festival.
In Tiefebene the worship of non giant gods has spread but is largely kept to personal shrines and small family gatherings. No one is required to pay homage to the giant gods but those who bring outside gods are often looked at with mistrust.
aside from hiatea the most revered thing is the land are the oracles. Those who can see and work the threads of fate in the places of destiny. there are three major oracles but each town and city usually boasts its own lesser oracles who are a bit more accessible to the average person. many in theses lands have some small talent for divination and few would fail to consult the threads of fate before making a major decision.
