Another group made up of self-sufficient settlements, but with closer development towards forming a cohesive 'nation', with regular meetings of leaders of each settlement and farmstead in something like the ancient Icelandic Althing. This has largely been motivated by the increasing threat posed by an ancient red dragon, Zelait.

Dominated by a reclusive mainly underground settlement of Davarin ('dwarves') with one human settlement.

Separate settlements, with occasional meetings together, mainly to deal with any crisis. But there are competing agents, one faction seeking to prevent any unity, another seeking to form a unified nation, and a third seeking to unite with the northern island, Endendor, in the newly created Bilyy (White) Jarldom

Here is each island close up.

Two rather 'evil' islands, and a major reason why the region hasn't consolidated into a nation state.

Here is the region of the northern Isles, with each island detailed. The uppermost left island is the closest to there being a 'nation', mainly due to the efforts of Melodiva Tirina, the charismatic female leader of this hardy folk. I am going to do a sketch using Character Artist of both the Sea king and Melodiva Tirina (as she is an important person in this fantasy world). And also try to use it to do the sea creatures, the Muru.
