Southlands

&nbsp The Southlands, or great southern continent, is the largest of the middle continents!

Approximately 37 BH marked the beginning of the rise of the followers of Khaal. The Khaalic religion spread quickly throughout several kingdoms devastated by the plague. Zharon of Voraasi initiated the second phase of the religion's spread when he declared Khaal'hasov, or Holy War on all 'pagan' worshippers.

For the next two decades, the story of the Southlands is dominated by the spread, through the use of both preaching and warfare, of the Khaalic religion. Kingdom after kingdom fell before the worshippers of Khaal, until the only bastion as yet unconquered was Utene, a Helvaic fortress.
