Angara

Angara is the northern central landmass on Weyard, and where the majority of the first game takes place. It's boundaries are: in the north; permanently frozen pack ice which joins it to the Northern Reaches and Prox (though the pack ice is not technically land). In the south; by the land locked Karagol Sea. In the East; by the Great Eastern Sea. In the West; by the Great Western Sea.

Angara contains the most settlements of any continent in Weyard and is arguably the most highly populated continent as well. One of the Elemental Lighthouses, Mercury Lighthouse, is located on this continent. Six of the eight main playable Adepts are encountered in Angara, while five of those six actually hail from there (Ivan hails from Contigo in Atteka).

The style of the towns in Angara is mostly based on Western European styles, thatch rooves, etc. The settlements in the far east of Angara resemble East Asia, notably China. Kalay, on the other hand, resembles the Near East to a certain degree, with the soldiers wearing turbans and the Arabian style roofs on the houses.

The Silk Road is a major trade route taken by merchants and travellers that starts in Eastern Angara in the town of Xian, where silk is produced. It then goes through the Lamakan Desert, down through the South Western Region and Kalay, through Kalay Docks amd around the western edge of the Karagol Sea, eventually to stop at the Town of Tolbi in North Gondowan.

Geography and Climate

The main geographic features of Angara are Kolima Forest, Mogall Forest and the Lamakan Desert, while the Goma Range of mountains bisects the continent and surrounds the desert. The north of the continent is extremely cold, while the majority is of temperate climate. The Lamakan Desert in the continent's East is renowned for being extremeley hot and dry.

Overworld Regions

In terms of the gameplay, Angara can be separated into several regions defined by the wild monsters that can be randomly fought while traversing the continent.

Upper western region

The northwestern region of Angara encompassing Mt. Aleph and Sol Sanctum, Vale, Vault, Lunpa, and the entrance to Goma Cave. It borders the lower western region and one can freely travel between the two regions once the bridge is repaired later in Golden Sun. Before that, one must travel to the Upper center and eastern regions.
