The Great Crossroads of Giribekk

The Capital of the Shimmering Isles is known as The Great Crossroads of Giribekk, and it is considered one of the greatest natural wonders of the world. The Shimmering Isles is home to a raw form of magic known as Arc Crystals that are both the chief export of the kingdom, but also their livelihood. Arc Crystals are a very unique substance as it has both properties of stone, and a living plant. The buildings of Giribekk are constructed of pale stone with veins of Arc Crystals running through it, looking almost grown rather than built.

At the center of the island city there is the Town Hall where all important decisions are decided by a group of masterful individuals known simply as the Masters - each Master is recognized as a renowned person in their field, and when they are recognized they are invited to serve in the group. The Shimmering Isles is the most peaceful place on the continent thanks to the Masters, and every race is welcome.
