Central
Dravarn
Dravarn sits at the centre of Nirah geographically and politically. Its railways and road networks make it the continent others pass through, which has given its nations more diplomatic relevance than their modest economies might otherwise warrant. The Yevuun Freeband terminates here, at the large Veil Strata separating Dravarn from Saenn.
Caldrith — a walled city-state in the south-east — is the continent's defining institution. Victorian-modern in aesthetic and clinical in character, it houses the Institute: the primary seat of psionic research governance in Nirah, and the origin point of the Hollow. Outside Caldrith's walls lie unacknowledged slums. Beyond them, still glowing faintly on survey overlays: the Hollow itself.
Current Political Status
Outwardly neutral. Caldrith maintains institutional control domestically but its credibility externally has eroded since the Hollow was exposed.
