Lorasia is a regional group of islands off the northwest coast of Nora. The four main islands are Cannok, Charlock, Moonbrook, and Rhone, together with numerous smaller islands and islets.
There is currently a trade embargo between Lorasia and Nora. However, due to heavy piracy amidst the Darkmouth Sea, blackmarket deals abound between knowledgeable merchants.
