 The plains of Delrasu is home to many wonders, both natural and constructed, like any other region of Ranil’inas. Legends and tales accompany them, some of them true, all of them believed. The plains of Delrasu is home to many wonders, both natural and constructed, like any other region of Ranil’inas.

-Perched on a cliff overlooking the Sea of Fire, Daramai Relatir+Perched on a cliff overlooking the Sea of Fire, Daramai Delrasu stands. Constructed entirely of black and brown baked stone, Daramai Delrasu appears more like a fortress than any other Resa Sarhi keep, mostly from the teachings of Delrasu herself. The city is separated into tiers, each with its own walls. Members of Delrasu reside in the higher tiers, while others reside in the lower tiers. Outside the walled city, what farmland Daramai Delrasu can maintain exists, mostly with fields of 'Steelgrass'.

 +In the center of Daramai Delrasu stands a monumental obelisk of onyx, adorned with line upon line of ancient Raiken script. Here, it is told that Delrasu carved her teachings, her 'Code of Victory', thousands of lessons devoted to complete victory in conflict. However, her lessons are not confined to tactics in battle, they reach to cover almost every aspect of society.
  
 === Valley of the High Fires === === Valley of the High Fires ===
  
-The Valley of the High Fires is one of the largest, and hottest, steam valleys in Delrasu, and despite its proximity to the eastern pole, it has gained fame in the eyes of many Raiken. This long, winding valley is flanked by countless tributaries of lava and even greater amounts of geysers that spew forth molten rock and fire. Yet, despite all this, a fast flowing, boiling river carves its path through the valley.+The Valley of the High Fires is one of the largest, and hottest, steam valleys in Delrasu, and despite its proximity to the eastern pole, it has gained fame in the eyes of many Raiken. This long, winding valley is flanked by countless tributaries of lava and even greater amounts of geysers that spew forth molten rock and fire. Yet, a fast flowing, boiling river carves its path through the valley.
  
-This near impossible landscape draws forth the admiration of those who look upon it, despite its lethality. Like other wondrous places, the Raiken have attached many tales to it, most notably the story of Delran, the first Hero of the High Fires. This has given birth to the practice of bearing the High Fires, entering the valley from one end and exiting through the other. Running this gauntlet is not only dangerous due to the temperature, but various beasts roam the High Fires and are apt to attack those who enter it. +This near impossible landscape draws forth the admiration of those who look upon it, despite its lethality.

 +== Steelgrass ==

 +Steelgrass appears as the name suggests. Tall, but thin, blades of metal-coated grass that thrives in much of the heat blasted wastes of Delrasu, at least where some shade is present. As plants are exceedingly rare, Steelgrass is incredibly valuable to the inhabitants of Delrasu. It is typically ground into a sort of grain and baked into a metal-rich sort of bread.

Line 101: Line 106:
 In Delrasu, the sun never leaves sight, always providing its intense and unrelenting light, strong enough to turn the earth to glass. Plants and fauna are hard-pressed to survive under such intense beams, as are Raiken. Shelter from the sun is just as valuable as food or water, making deep valleys and plateaus or mountains extremely valuable resources. In Delrasu, the sun never leaves sight, always providing its intense and unrelenting light, strong enough to turn the earth to glass.

-Where in Relatir and Ormroth, Rel and Ral provide light, they provide shade from the ever present sun in Delrasu. Every day, Rel and Ral trek across the bright sky as black orbs, casting a deep shadow in their wake. Unlike natural shadows, the shadows provided by Rel and Ral are seen as ill omens and most Raiken go out of their way to avoid them.+Where in Relatir and Ormroth, Rel and Ral provide light, they provide shade from the ever present sun in Delrasu. Over the course of every cycle, Rel and Ral trek across the bright sky as black orbs, casting a deep shadow in their wake. Unlike natural shadows, the shadows provided by Rel and Ral are seen as ill omens and most Raiken go out of their way to avoid them. Although, this consistent shade does provide strips of more habitable land, so some groups dismiss the notion of ill omens and reside here.
