The Ranjavani

Island Cluster

The Ranjavani are a cluster of landmasses in the southwest of Aranor, consisting of the western corner of the Golden Coast and the three islands of Garanja, Ziranja, and Neranja. The Ranjavani were first discovered by curious explorers of the former Khameni Empire to the east, though the islands' inhabitants had settled there long before the founding of the empire itself.

Like most of Aranor, the Ranjavani were not spared the destruction of the Curse of Falandine thousands of years ago, bringing about the ruin of entire kingdoms situated in the south. Despite this, however, a few pockets of civilization have managed to endure through the turmoil of the Curse, most notably the hidden kingdom of Chicomecoatl, which hid itself away through powerful barrier magic on the island of Garanja and remains undiscovered to present day, instead masquerading as a scattered, disorganized tribe of primitive Tieflings. The city of Fen'Sharan, home of the enigmatic Star Elves, holds control over the Gulf of Neranja with it's sizable fleet and formidable magic, trading regularly with the coastal towns of Azur, whilst further south lies the city of Besher, a mercantile republic with a navy that is powerful enough to match the might of the Darian Admiralty itself. Kavani Stronghold is Azur's most prominent fort and settlement in the region, keeping watch over it's coastal roads and guarding against attempted incursions into the land.

With it's relatively safe waters and easily-accessible sea and land routes, the Ranjavani have become a popular destination for travelers and traders from Kiran and the Heartlands seeking an alternative to the oft-hazardous and extortionist ways of Darian "diplomacy", in addition to drawing in many curious adventurers wanting to explore it's unmapped and unfamiliar jungles in the west and the south. This has led to a rise in tension throughout the region as Darian ships attempt to maintain a small foothold in the region, sending out scouts to Garanja to try and assess it's potential in riches and resources - much to the agitation of Chicomecoatl, who find their territory regularly being encroached upon by explorers from all over Aranor, and the fury of Besher, who wish for the jungles of Garanja to remain undisturbed.
