Map of the Southern Plains

The Southern Plains are bounded on the east by the southern extension of the Voltai Mountains, on the south and west by Thassa, and on the north by the Ta-Thassa Mountains and the corridor of plains over which the armies of the Wagon Peoples once rode to Ar itself.

 

Scenes of The Barrens

The Barrens is bounded on the north by the Northern Forests. This scene shows a place near the border of the Barrens and the Northern Forests where the earth is not as rich, being mostly composed of sandy soils.

This scene depicts a flower field in summer near the Northern Forests.

This picture shows grassland with small mixed forests.

This view shows small hills and a river in winter from the perspective of a high place.

 

Scenes of the Voltai Mountains

This view shows that Voltai Mountains are made of many chains and so has considerable width.

The mountains display a striking red color and rise in height to peaks with snowcaps.

This picture hypothesizes a number of features that might be expected to be found in the Voltai. The base shows a flower meadow. To the left is a fluvial valley. Up the side of the slope to the right are rounded glacial forms and a clump of till. Down the slope and across the valley, an embryonic river is detected. Overhead, partially obscuring the sun, are Foehn clouds.
