Carnetxea
A rugged dry coast of mountain clans, fortified towns, and dragon-kin tradition.
Carnetxea is a rugged dry country on Keṣtraná’s northwestern coast, facing Sm’ralo and the western Bakalatu. Mountain chains, dry uplands, forested higher slopes, semi-arid valleys, and a hard coastline give it sharply varied local districts.
Dragon-kin form the defining cultural presence, while ports and trade settlements also draw other peoples into the country’s public life.
