Map of the Pallathantic Sea, showing the Pytharnian Sea to the northwest and the Memnosian Sea to the southeast

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 Pallathantic Sea is incalculable to the surrounding nations and peoples.

Magdeologers teach that the basin of the Pallathantic Sea is created by rift in the earth associated with the movement of the continental plate of Pytharniaca. Most historians believe humans and humanlikes made the first transpallathantic voyages in the seventh millennium AS. Native Kalaman and titanist historians believe the sea was voyaged much earlier.

Artist's depiction of the legendary titan city of Azalamb

A legendary city of the titans thought to exist in another realm, Azalamb is reported to be as vast as a small world. Accounts handed down from pre-flood times reveal that many titans fled during the cataclysms to the world of Azalamb. The city is said to have been created over twenty thousand years ago. Lord Tenedrin Calchamas of Aurice and other scholars of the titanist school desire to discover or create a titan gate by which means they may be transported to the city of Azalamb.

Featured List

The records of Kalama provide us with kingdom after kingdom, each composed of numerous dynasties and reaching back unthinkably into the past. Scholars generally accept the historicity of the king lists from the sixth millennium before Salmakhamer towards the present. Rulers before this time are considered legendary or semi-legendary. Non-native and some native scholars regard the historicity of the Sanjasthanite Kingdoms with much skepticism believing it to be completely or largely fabricated.
