Aarvia

Aarvia was a region of Mascotia, long ago absorbed by the abyss. It existed in the Archaic Times, and will reemerge in the age of Mortal Mascotia. Aarvia still exists within the Absorbed Realm.

It was located at the most northern point of Mascotia.

Notable Locations

 * Stratic City - Among the cloudscapes high in the air, a strange city can be found. It is unknown who lives here, as the residents are never seen, and the area is almost impossible to reach.
 * Sea of Scalding - Any who fall into these volcanic waters will be boiled to a delicious crisp. The area is completely masked by steam, and the air itself can kill most. Some volcanic islands exist within the area, but few can access them.
 * Great Aarvic Pillars - Thes towering stone pillars are coated in barnacles and sea life at the bottom, and are shrouded by mist and cloud layer above. It is unknown how these formed, or if they were created by something or someone.
 * Vapor Plains - High above the ground, an entire ecosystem of creatures Ahrveta himself often visits thrive on the rolling cloud plains. Everything from megafauna such as SkyWhales are preyed upon by raptor like creatures, never to be seen from the surface world as even after death, their bodies are kept afloat by some non-understood force. The huge, broad leaved plants also grow here, swallowed whole by huge herbivores.
 * Screaming Storms - A seemingly everlasting storm has raged on here for millions of years, high above the sea below and without trace. Black, sleek, majestic dragon like creatures patrol the electrical storms, diving down to take creatures on the peaceful plains below. You don't know where they're coming from, your only clue to hide is the sonic scream that they produce.
 * Tornado Stretch - Wind speeds here reach 300 miles per hour, ripping attempted infrastructure apart and throwing it far and wide. Untamed Wind Atronachs are said to be found here, unleashing their lethal powers upon you.
 * Aarvia Nebula - Quite literally the most beautiful but poorly known place in Mascotia, this mini nebula exists for an unknown reason. It is said to be a map of the Nebula Sol once formed from, even producing mini orbs of light which represent the stars. This place is so poorly understood and so unreachable though, that very few of it's secrets have been unveiled.

Native Flora and Fauna
Little to nothing is known about this region's flora and fauna, though it is thought to be similar to that of Pelagia and Prismia.

Geology
Unknown, though most of it is presumably basalt.
