Setting
Halogi
Almost three hundred years ago, the First Lunar Cry rent the heavens of Halogi, bringing a torrential downpour of water and monstrosities from the moon. Every hundred years since, a new flood pours forth, extinguishing what hope nascent civilizations may have with another tidal wave of destruction. There are pockets of survivors on land who always persist, though, determined to rebuild after each onslaught, to try to reclaim what has been lost. It is nearing the end of the 100-year 'calm' as storms still wrack the lands, drowning them, and a group of adventurers from all over Halogi find themselves very suddenly whisked from where they were and to the Balamb Region, near one of the largest gardens left, Reclamation. Uncovering what brought them together, what the smoke that fills their dreams is, and the history of the world that once was will give them a fighting chance to stop the next Lunar Cry and, perhaps, reverse a calamity from ages past.

Terrain
Galbadia is the northeastern island chain in the world. It's also known as the Dragon's Back Region as the island chain makes a vaguely reptile-shaped form when looking at it on a map. The most prominent mountains are on the largest northern island, and there is a small dead forest in the area. There is another dead forest on the western-most island. There are small settlements outside the gardens in some areas. These tend to be made up of one or two small family groups.
Races
The most prominent races in this region are Viera, Au'ra, Mi'qote, and Hyur. The most prominent beast societies are the Kojin and Sylphs.
