Quote:Hydaelyn is the world in which Final Fantasy XIV takes place. Though it is the name of the entire planet, the term is very rarely used by its inhabitants, for to understand the concept of a planet, one must first know of other worlds, and most on Hydaelyn do not. Players will begin their adventures in a city-state of Eorzea, a realm consisting of the continent of Aldenard and its surrounding islands, the largest of which being Vylbrand.
The continent of Aldenard is part of the Global Region known as Eorzea. It is the smallest continent in Hydaelyn, and is surrounded by several islands. A land bridge connects Aldenard to the land mass containing the other two continents.
Ilsabard is a continent to the northeast of Aldenard. It is currently dominated by the Garlean Empire and home to their capital city of Garlemald.
Othard is the eastern-most of Hydaelyn's Three Great Continents. It is presently part of the Garlean Empire, which is seated on the middle content of Ilsabard.
The island of Vylbrand is part of the region of Eorzea. It lies off the western coast of Aldenard and is home to the city-state of Limsa Lominsa, which is located on the island's southwestern coast. Vylbrand is bordered by the Rhotano Sea to the south, the Indigo Deep to the northwest, and the Strait of Merlthor to the east. Several smaller islands are connected to the main island by brilliant ivory bridges.
Regions located on the island include La Noscea on the southern side and O'Ghomoro in the north. The island is divided in half by a large volcano at its center.
So in short, what's out there? Garleans. You can see why this is rough for RP.
Looks like I may just have to figure something else out.
