Zeonica

Zeonica sits by the seaside at the base of the Iltaric hills, a land of wine, grain and horses. It was named for the Lady Zeona, one of the few women to rule the Empire - admittedly as regent for her son rather than Empress Regnant. It is known for the Zeonic Wind, a gale that blows northward across the Perassic Sea every summer carrying the burning heat of the Nahasa desert to the imperial south. In other seasons the weather here is mild, a weather pattern that has provided many a poet with a metaphor for the transience of passion.
