Cthonia, sometimes called the Thunderlands, is a sheltered and mostly unexplored land. Located on what is commonly called the Eastern Arm of the Continent of Yrth, it falls between The Scab to the west and the Crying Woods to the east. It was mostly avoided as "too dangerous for civilized folks" until recently. As trade between the Peninsula of Elenna and parts east increased, the need for a land trade route has increased. | Cthonia, sometimes called the Thunderlands, is a sheltered and mostly unexplored land.
