Umora is a spherical planet divided into two main hemispheres: the northern hemisphere and the southern hemisphere.[3][4] The planet's poles are designated as the north pole and the south pole. Near the northern pole, there is a significant Imperial measurement known as the Boreatic Parallel, which serves as a geographical reference point.[5]
The North Poll is north of the Boreatic Parallel, [1] and is subject to astronomical polar night, meaning it does not receive any sunlight. [3] Its weather is described as constantly cold, with frequent snowfall and storms. [4] The terrain is largely mountainous, with long valleys. Its peaks are miles tall. One peak, occupied by the Palace of the Wind and Stars, is the highest point on Umora. The only foliage is that of crystalline trees, which grow with a logical, geometric structure. The larger forest is made of a similarly formal pattern.[4]
Within the northern hemisphere lies a prominent region called Kehmsaraza. This area is notable for being the heartland of the Kehmsarazan Empire, a powerful and historically significant empire that exerts influence over much of the northern hemisphere.[6] Directly to the south of Kehmsaraza are the lands known as Gaothmai. This region is characterized by its tropical climate, which contrasts with the more temperate or colder zones found further north.[7][8] To the west of the Kehmsarazan Empire lies an ocean that has yet to be given an official name, remaining a vast and mysterious body of water. Across this ocean, far to the south within the southern hemisphere, is the island of Akham.[6] Traveling this distance from Steel's Citadel to Akham by airship typically takes about three days, highlighting the considerable expanse of the Empire.airship [9] This island represents the farthest reach of the Empire in this southern direction.[10] Additionally, the lands known as Rhuv and Golvang are also part of Umora, though their exact geographic locations remain unknown at this time.
Both the regions of Gaothmai and Rhuv are associated with seas that bear their names. These bodies of water are significant geographical features linked to these respective territories.[11]
