Chronicles of Dracrie world-building ➣ Qedrah

Qedrah is the largest and most geographically diverse nation in Dracrie. Betii, Ghara, Naeji, Tavazar, and Woji are the nations within, and they supply a wide variety of goods to the other nations. Betii is known for their paints, dyes, and glass panes and art; Ghara for their spices and gems; Naeji for a variety of rices and medicines; Tavazar for kappe beans, spices, and pottery; and Woji for rices, fabrics, and medicines.

Before Nacratyn, what is now Qedrah was the home to Zenjani Hold—a resting place for dragons to birth their eggs, as well as a place for people who wished to bond with a dragon to find the egg that would choose them. It was lost to the sea when the land was rent, taking with it the myriad eggs of dragons, drakes, and wyverns. Despite the war with them, the majority of the people still have a great reverence for dragons and the age before this one.

While there are some similarities with the magic between the nations, they tend to differ just as much with how they channel their magic. The people of the roaming tribes of Betii produce dyes and paints with magical properies. For example: some paints are used on the skin to protect it from the sun's rays, others are used for moving art pieces. The dyes are given to Woji to produce extraordinary clothing—one of the dyes in particular makes the wearer of the fabric completely invisible. Woji and Naeji have worked together for centuries to produce and perfect earth-based medicines. Tavazar and Ghara's buildings are covered with stone and glass mosaics, the designs and pieces charmed to protect the inhabitants and provide light to the city when the sun goes down.
