The fame of the Pallathantic Sea has given its name to the region and the lands which its waves wash. The goddess Pallatha is the sea's namesake and she is credited with guiding the ancient Pallathantic Tribes to settle its islands thousands of years ago. The Pallathantic Sea is formed between the subcontinent of Pytharnia to the north and the minor continent of Danona and the lands of Throvy and Corundy to the south. There are over a hundred islands in the Pallathantic Sea, the greatest of which are Nymentho and Erechóreb. The sea has a great moderating effect on the lands and islands that touch it and magdeologers believe that the sea is the means by which warm water from near the equator is brought north. The commercial and cultural worth of the Pallahthantic Sea is incalculable to the surrounding nations and peoples.

Geographic Extent

The sea traffic of the Pallathantic is immense and its commercial value cannot be overstated. By means of the sail and the oar, the Pallathantic Sea joins western Asdauria to Pytharnia, Pytharnia to Corundy, Ambrinqua to Pytharnia. The sea communicates with the Pytharnian Sea to the north and the Memnosian Sea to the south. The Pallathantic Sea affords access to the Mathareusan Sea to the west. For this reason, this Sea has been fought over for centuries. The modern nations of the Pallathantic observe treaties to ensure the fair use of its waterways and resources. Sea piracy is uncommon in the eastern Pallathantic and there are few finer ways of taking a holiday than touring the many coast cities and towns of the Pallathantic by yacht.

The western Pallathantic is the home of Nymentho and Erechóreb. Its waters are deeper and can become quite choppy in inclement weather. Sea Piracy though rare today is not unknown here, especially from the coves and inlets of northern Danona. Despite these dangers, many great ships ply its waters with trade and passengers.

The merfolk have several undersea cities in the central to western Pallathantic Sea. The greatest of these is Siul, ruled by the goddess Dáwan and her coterie of mermen. Naquir and Geddi are also very populous and important. These cities rest on high sea mounts or in the case of Geddi, on the continental shelf of Danona.
