Sei

Sei (SAY) is a land of deserts, rich with mineral deposits, and bordered by mountains. Sei is also known as the Home of Magic, as it was where the First Mage originated. It has the best magic schools and a reputation for producing powerful mages. They also excavate large amounts of gemstones and precious metals (especially gold, their national currency), which they then use in trade for the commodities that they cannot grow or manufacture themselves. Their artisans are skilled in the disciplines of stone-carving and sculpting, and their abundance of sand and Fire Mages means that they are the world's glass-making capital.

On the political side of things, they have a long history of animosity with the lands of Solum, but they are on good terms with their trade partners in Qhuchit. They have no navy nor worry of pirates, and instead train the Gryphons that live in the mountains as steeds. These, desert horses, camels, and occasionally elephants, are their main types of transportation, especially for caravans.

Their system of government is a monarchy, though mages and priests hold a great deal of political pull as powerful figures and advisors. As they are a desert land, the sun also plays a great part in their lives, so they tend to worship Ilios as their primary god. Magic is also a hugely important part of their country, and thusly, Oneira also commands great respect in Sei.
