Shining Plains

The Shining Plains was a portion of the Vilhon Reach, named after the visual effect of sunlight hitting the plains. The plains themselves were not held by any cohesive force, instead being composed of human-filled city-states, wemic and centaur tribes, and a powerful druidic organization called the Emerald Enclave.

"The Shining Plains are many things, lad, but a "kingdom" ain't one of them. If you can imagine grasslands as far as your eyes can see - with just a few cities scattered around for good measure - then you've got a pretty good idea of The Shining Plains. Aye, and they've got horses too."

- Miritol Kran, Sage of Alaghôn
