Ymaryn

Ymaryn is a small continent in Ocera's southern hemisphere, located several miles south of the planet's equator. It is the only continent not connected to any of the others via a land bridge. The landscape of the continent consists mostly of many types of wetlands. While forests and grasslands are present on the continent, one would most likely find swamps, mires, and marshes. Even most of the continent's coastline is made up of salt marshes. This continent also seems to receive the most yearly rainfall. As a result of the terrain and weather, most civilizations in this continent belong to the Oceran Kappas. While there are few other civilizations belonging to the other races, they usually are found near the coasts of this continent. Though there tend to be fewer civilizations of any kind the closer one travels through the center. This is the result of a rumor that the exact center of Ymaryn is the most dangerous location on the continent. While the true extent of this rumor has yet to be confirmed, there does appear to be increasing toxicity. There also seems to be semi-frequent sightings of wll-o'-the-wisps across the continent.

Regions

Landmarks

There are seven archways, known as the Rokain Gateways, that are spread across the planet. There is one gateway on each of the continents, with the exception of Gesene having two. The purpose of these gates are to allow people to travel between Ocera to the planet of Rokans. One of these archways eventually ceased function when its sister archway on Rokans was destroyed by Trajodeas.

Ecology

Races

Like most other planets within the Manaverse, humans are a major race on the planet of Ocera. They are one of the nine major races that have existed on the planet.

• The Oceran Kappa, a race of small testudinal beings similar to the Kappa of Japanese lore. They are more commonly found within the continent of Ymaryn.
• The Oceran Liios, a race of arrogant leonine beings identical to the Rokain Liios native to Rokans. At a point in the history of Ocera, this race has gone extinct.

Αlfa and Ωmel

Ocerans recognize two deities as gods of the planet: Αlfa and Ωmel. While their origin remains an enigma to Ocerans, it is believed that these two created the world as it is now. Ωmel flooded the planet, then rose a massive landmass from the ground and split it apart into six smaller landmasses of varying sizes, creating the six continents of Gesene, Caralnese, Iartyaxse, Ymaryne, Naontla, and Loriamarii. He then linked Gesene, Caralnese, and Iartyaxse to each other via land bridges, then proceeded to do the same to Naontla and Loramarii. Αlfa then proceeded to bring life to the planet, at first creating various plants and lesser species before finally creating the nine races of Ocera. Once the two of them believed that their work was complete, they retreated from the planet.

While their existence has yet to be confirmed, possible proof exist in twelve enigmatic objects that are believed to have been left behind by them when they left Ocera: the Zoida Spires.

Zodia Spires

The Zodia Spires are twelve relics believe to have been left behind by Αlfa and Ωmel as they vanished from Ocera. They are scattered across the planet, with two located on each of the continent.

• The Spire of Kark is located within Ymaryn.
