The robe he wears catches the light with the smallest of motions, glittering faintly as if precious jewels are woven in the fabric.

A former human kingdom that sunk beneath the waves of the ocean centuries ago. It returning wasn't a good thing, though. It was overrun with Risen - undead minions of the Elder Dragon Zhaitan.
