Bolkhyn
I traveled from Everbright, into Bolkan, and was amazed. I never thought that the unforgiving sun could possibly give way to even more unforgiving heat. I prayed every moment that I would fare well enough in my travels as to not fall victim to a stray lava pit...
Luckily, of course, it seems I pulled through in the end.
The Bolkhyn are people who reside within the region Bolkan, in southern Nefyran.
Solitary People
The Bolkhyn people who reside here do so, knowing that their home is very inhospitable to others But, to them, it is a safe haven. This is not to say that even this safe haven does not have dangers which it may pose to those equipped to survive in it; despite its own unique dangers, however, the Bolkhyn homes are easily defendable against outside threats, who often perish or retreat before meeting any city gates. Few visitors may come to their lands, but they welcome the solitude if it means peace.Other populations throughout Bolkan may be less hospitable, mirroring the land they inhabit. Though the Bexarem are among them, their inability to travel makes them a minute threat to the Bolkhyn, but there are other enemies of the Bolkhyn scattered across Bolkan, with some of these foes driving their hostility from the elemental entities of the land.
It is difficult to live in an isolation, forged of your home environment. But not always.
A Volatile Home
Bolkan is a region in which the Leyline of Agitation has had a major emergence. Thus, these people make their homes in a volatile place, brimming with energy and chaos, which has manifested in extreme heat and volcanic activity.Unlike their Sunwright neighbors to the west, who can host most folks with relative comfort, the Bolkhyn must be individually equipped to live in such a treacherously volcanic place, such as by having their own natural resistance to heat, in order to live in the region.
