Culture and Locations
Alacas is a princedom ruled by a grand prince in central Ideitess. Its official religion is Alatia -- which later came to be the name of the people and princedom -- which teaches people to seek out divine truth and help out your fellow Alatian follower. They are very nationalistic, taking great pride in their rather unique appearance of having elongated ears, and are very protective of their cultural ways. Their capital is Alacas, which is also built on top of the archaios known as Alacas.
Alacas lies in a taiga valley between the Mountains of Eyes and the western Khatsanaras in a region called the Tiuta Basin. The Velishla is the largest river here and flows through Alacas.
