The Continent of Cendria
Built on the ruins of past empires, Cendria is a largely uninhabited continent, humans often finding nature pushing back against them at every turn. Two large cities and several small towns operate together to etch out a living, but there is always a question of when the next disaster will strike.

Goldrock Ruins
Barely 40 years ago the mining town of Goldrock was struck first by a devastating earthquake, then buried by the following volcanic eruption. A small settlement has since risen up near the ruins, the locals still afraid to upset the mountain again with their mining. Instead, the village is full of those seeking to study the ruins and the volcano itself. Little progress has been made due in part to the ghosts inhabiting the ruins, and the pokemon that have descended from the mountains to live side-by-side with the dead.

Highpeak Castle
Nestled against the mountains that give it its name, Highpeak Castle serves as the gate between east and west Cendria, by both Land and Sea. A grand, sprawling port town where even the grime of the stones tell history. Bustling with tourists wishing to visit the immense keep or those simply passing through its channels in to the eastern ocean, it tends to be a place where many businesses covet to start, with the wide range of potential customers. Despite its bustling nature, few outside Cendria know of the immense port city, hearing only of the sparkling gems that pass through its port.

Southpoint
The first settlers of Southpoint had grand visions of a bustling port town where merchants from across the seas would visit first, before travelling onwards to Highpeak. Unfortunately, the Southern Forests had other ideas. Always pleasantly warm despite its southern location, Southpoint is blessed with its Fairy Garden, central to all the problems the villagers have experienced. Strange stones litter the area, marked with images of fairy pokemon playing. At its centre, a large tree-like stone stands, originally fashioned to look like Xerneas, but since damaged beyond what the unnatural stones could heal.

Sparkling Lake
Thousands of years ago, a grand empire sprawled across the continent of Cendria, its cities built from the gems they so easily harvested. All that remains of this empire now rests at the bottom of the Sparkling Lake, a grand jeweled city, so deep no human is able to reach. Occassionally, pieces of the city break free, floating towards the surface over a series of months, giving the lake its name and the nearby town of Jewelheart its lifeblood.

Jewelheart
Built on the shores of the Sparkling Lake a century ago, the town of Jewelheart lives almost exclusively on the wealth of a long deceased empire. With sole access to the lake, Jewelheart is able to sell its gem encrusted jewelery at a premium, Its exclusive deal with Highpeak sees the town well-fed, and its coffers overflowing.

Sage Woods
Taking up the entire eastern half of the continent, the Sage Woods remains largely uninhabited by humans, filled instead with pokemon. Attempts to keep the roads to those few settlements deep within have all but failed, patrols from Jewelheart discontinued due to a lack of profit. The towns within remain largely self-sufficient, native humans passing by more than happy to help where the villagers have failed. Over the years, pokemon attacks on the villages have diminished, but any who attempt the trek to Jewelheart still need be prepared.
