The Relief is a circular expanse in Fio’s northern hemisphere unaffected by the Miasma. Approximately 2,000 miles in diameter, the Relief spans six unique regions with an abundance of culture that transcends even the barriers between the planes of existence.
Profundus
Profundus is the largest region at the centre of the Relief. It plays host to one of the largest and most populous cities in the Relief, Caelum’s Landing, the Church of Caelum’s capital city. Adventurers and tourists can take advantage of sprawling markets and travel to nearby earthmotes on powered cable cars.

Glacialis
Glacialis is the northernmost region of the Relief. The region suffers arctic climates that have moulded its denizens into a force of nature. The stalwart people of Nox look upon the Relief through rings of aurora. Further east, the dinosaur-riding clans of Primal Antiqua thrive on more verdant land.

Contritus
Contritus is the easternmost region of the Relief. The region is broken by the far-reaching fjords and archipelagos of the Manyshells. To the south-east, the enormous jungle earthmote Mallia appears to drain the sea with the curtain-like vines that veil its shores.

Calidus
Calidus is the southernmost region of the Relief. Calidus is blanketed by harsh sands, yet many varied cultures thrive here. The sandstone city of Arx offers refuge to travellers while powerful fiends are said to watch with envious eyes from the darkened landscape beyond the Miasma.

Montanum
Montanum is the westernmost region of the Relief. The region is characterised by its expansive mountain ranges. Though much of the region is obscured by the Miasma, the oasis of Madanau serves as an invaluable trade hub for intrepid explorers of the magical purple fog.

Discidium
Discidium lies beyond the Miasma’s south-western border. What remains of the region’s landscape can still be seen as the red glow of lava and lightning storms illuminate the purple fog. At the centre of Discidium lies the crater from which Mundi Eversor emerged 1,000 years ago.
