★ LIOPIA

"A lively temperate forest with shallow creeks and waterfalls dotting and flowing through the very core and spreading out like a web throughout the territory. Edged with vast fields of golden wheat and various crops, this community thrives on it's farmland and produce, being the main source of food for most of the land."

"It's a quiet place, but is constantly full of wanderers and visitors of all sorts, a welcome place for any weary traveler. The locals seem friendly! They value their trade and are quite closely knit. It's an easy town to call home."

Worldbuilding/ Lore

"An often sunny springtime territory, home to a vast variety of bugs and creatures alike. The land is shrouded in tall birch, but often leaving patches of meadow and open blue sky gleaming down below. Similarly to the Moonlit Meadows, the inhabitants of this forest make hideaways in the land, crafting homes in the trunks of trees, beneath stumps, and up in the branches. They aren't hostile, but mostly keep to themselves with the occasional bustling group."

"A collection of winding tunnels dug through soft soul and roots beneath the lakes and ponds above. Because of the water seeping through, it is almost always "raining" or damp down below. Cozy and chillded, the inhabitants are known to nuture life and greenery beneath the surface with the help of the constant stream of waters beaneath. Though the land itself is harmless, it is easy to get lost in the twisting tunnels and be anable to find your direction again."

Worldbuilding/ Lore

"Glowing meadows and valleys filled with bioluminescent plant life and fauna. It's never fully daytime here, nighttime being most prominent with dawn and dusk ebbing second place. The creatures are alight in the pollen and sparkle-filled air. Dust sprinkles the ground, lifting into the breeze with every step. It is guarded by a centaur beetle and highly patrolled."

"Serene and welcoming, the territory is calm and quiet. Those who live here take shelter in mushroom cap houses, and tall hallowed trees, the inhabitants closest things to fairies and other mythical creatures, or so it's said. The beetles here have are known for having natural magic skill, and a deep connection with the land they protect."

"They're very welcoming, but will defend their sacred land at any cost if threatened, especially with the guardian at their side."

"Warm beaches! Rocks sprout from the pure white sands that are connected to the ocean. Aquatic teabeetles call this place home, though odd crystals, and other growths are found within the territory's core. It has been revealed over time for the area to be closely tied to sweets and other miscellaneous deserts, and nobody quite knows why but it has been integrated into the culture."

"The waters are warm and tropical, though the deep ocean connected past the shallows and coral reefs are never explored. Beetles of odd mutations, especially those relating to candy aren't uncommon here. There's something almost enchanting and unnatural about it. Some wonder if the place was cursed- or alternatively, blessed, -once upon a time."

"The cities beneath the shores and along the coral cliffsides, run by an ancient mer-teeb queen, used to be quite close with the now fallen and ruined kingdom in the center of Liopia. It said that the two ruling lands had a plan to merge into one government upon marrying their heirs but close to the official merging date, the Kingdom fell under siege and ruin through mysterious monsters and leviathans resurfacing."

"After that, the sea cities distanced themselves from the incident. Many believe it may have been a band of sea beetles unhappy with the marriage and annexation of their kingdom that were driven to cause the chaos that eventually lead to the shattering of the Vast Skylands and ruin of the Center Kingdom, but it's all tales and hearsay by now."

"Dense tropical forests and thick humid air all tangled in once place. The area is vibrant and colorful, home to an abundance of smaller bugs and birds, though it is easy to get lost and confused amongst the overgrowth. Any beetle encountered here is usually happy to help, though. Small communities scattered around the entire area were common, but for some unknown reason over time, the local beetles started disappearing.. it is unknown why, and treated as an oddity throughout the rest of the land. Though with less home-born guides, outsiders have been unable to properly map and keep up with the place."

"It is rare to find inhabitants nowadays, and due to them no longer being able to keep up with the rapid growth, the jungle only grows more tangled and dangerous to navigate. It has been abandoned by the other territories, and essentially given up on and buried within history."

Worldbuilding/ Lore

"Cliffside city hanging on the edge of the world. They overlook the ocean and the bay, the city built on the ruined outskirts of the previously strong castle that was lost centuries ago. Due to their closeness to the devastation site, monsters and other.. insecdribable creatures make their way to and around the edges of the city. The citizens have built tall walls and moved to the edges of the cliffs to keep them out. Life is peaceful, in the safety of their stone cage. Despite that, with proper guard, it is still a valuable and desired destination, known for its size and habitability despite the odds."

Worldbuilding/ Lore

"A foggy mire, shrouded in a dark light and constant mist among the tall pines that enclose it. The puddles and various pools stitching the small isles of grass may seem shallow, but they are laden thick with mud and sink into deep caves and dark rivers and trenches just below. The water is black and opaque only just past the surface. You'd be lucky to catch a glimpse of what's below you if you get caught in the bog"

"The creatures and inhabitants here are hard to find. This place.. holds a very eerie, still air about it. It isn't recommended anyone wander here. Disappearances are common, and no beetle quite knows the truth behind what happens here."

Worldbuilding/ Lore

"A previously lively kingdom set ablaze and fallen into ash and ruins. Believed to now be haunted and cursed by the ghosts of the entire kingdom. The once bustling palaces and castle walls were home to many, but a fateful encounter ended up sealing their fate

"It is said a reaper wanders the now empty chasms and rubble, slaughtering any remaining bloodlines from the original Center Kingdom's inhabitants and residents out of spite and hatred. It had appeared days after the stray shot had split the Skylands apart and caused massive damage."

Worldbuilding/ Lore

"A still, snowy boreal forest north of Harvest Springs, up the tall mountain peaks and sheltered within a crown of peaks. The territory is notoriously harsh, especially during fall and winter, and as a result not many take up residency within these finicky mountains. The inhabitants are wary of newcomers, as they often don't get visitors, but don't seem to hate the idea of connections with the lands below."

"It's said only the toughest, warm-blooded teabeetles can withstand the snow enough to locate the scarce population living in a small village nestled in the very center of the ring of mountains. It snows almost constantly here, but it is described as quite gorgeous."

Worldbuilding/ Lore

"Large floating islands surrounded by bold blue skies. Clouds wrap around everywhere, and pools of almost crystal clear water roll off of the edges and trickle into the lands below. Winged teabeetles are most common here. It's a majestic sight, quite a place to behold with tall, glistening ruins and glittering grass. Cherry blossom trees populate the vast expanse of islands connected by the breeze."

"One would be hard pressed to find their way up here with out a mode of air transportation. Even winged beetles have trouble scaling the true height up into the skies if they aren't native to the area. Aquatic and water dwellers have tried to swim up the waterfalls, but most run out of stamina before they even get halfway there, though some have had glimpses."

"Mystery shrouds the place due to how little is known about it by most of the population. Though it is said to have been the most technologically advanced place in all of Liopia, having created multitudes of different mechanisms and tools."

"The Skylands were previously one large island, but a stray shot from the Center Kingdom's defenses on their doomsday among the panic was sent into the sky to barrel towards the Skylands. Struck, the Skylands were split into multiple pieces and cracking in the middle. Many of the Skyland's teabeetles were killed and fell that day, countless caught on fire from the flames and tumbling down to crash and burn."
