Dragon Kingdom Map - Main Lands

Following my project (still without a name) of a Dragon World, I did the elements, now is turn of the World Map!

There'll be a second part due to floating islands :>


From my current project linked to my dragon adopts, I did the Dragon World Map! I'm gonna give some summary of each region, not one per name bc that would take forever :>
Still there'll be a second map which would show the floating islands, where Wind Dragons Region resides plus other kind of dragons!

FIELDS OF GAIA: Mostly all the lands and forest of the "PURE LANDS" which separate the "DARK LANDS" with the Shield of Helios (built by the Light Empire and enchanted by the Arcane Dragons under their command). The Fields of Gaia is the center where all connect and of course, the reign of Nature Dragons... which have some issues with the Fire Region.

SNOWMOUNTS: The high mountains of the lands, with ice peaks and snowy forests. Where Ice Dragons reside... and share a bit with some Electric Dragons in Storm Tops.

BLAZING CRATERS: A burning warm crater, close to the Sun Apex and conquering part of the forests (where Nature Dragons are in argument with Fire Dragons), with a ring of fire around the biome to stop the forests to burn. This biome is shared with Metal Dragons, Creek of Steel and Crystal Caves are a place for them... while there are also Metal Dragons sharing land with Electric Dragons in Prism Islands.

SUN APEX: Where the Light Empire reside as well their god Solar Dragon, Helios. High mountains with cliffs of paradise where there can't snow due to the light of sun warming the grounds, between Light Passage and Solar Kingdom there is a city where all dragons share, walk, work and more. Phoenix's Judgement is a killing cliff where traitors, heretics and corrupted minded souls are thrown, killed or judged... while Helios presence the acts and begs of the unlucky. The Toxic Islands, right down them, are unreachable and forbidden to get into or if you get spotted you will be judged or killed in sight; Toxic Islands are a place where nobody knows what's going on in there, only Light Dragons know, besides... they do not recommend it either due to "safety" as the islands have a toxic fog around them (not even Water Dragons can get close as the waters are toxic as well).

OASIS: The country lands of the Desert Dragons, a place way too hot but they feel is kinda comfy. They've got a little lake of warm waters in the middle, full of cactus and palm trees, some sandy mountains, and an archipelago full of caves (Skull Caves). Slider Peak is a mountain which river falls as a spiral, so as the name slider... you can guess what they tend to do.
STONE TOWN: Where Earth Dragons reside, their region takes place mostly close to the ocean. They share lands with Desert Dragons, Fire Dragons, Water Dragons and Honey Dragons (as their biggest house hive is on Amber Isle). Pacific Beach is the place where all dragons decide to go to the beach to refresh themselves and be social with each other, a good trip there is sure a worth it.

DARK WILDS: Outside the Shield, the exiliated grounds, the dark lands (too many names). From a green valley, turns into a grey forest where there are 3 paths, the Ledge of Choice (where a tribe of exiliated dragons reside in hope for a choice of keep surviving or end their hopeless lives) or the Moonlight Bay (where resides the goddess Lunar Dragon, Selene). Whispering Fields are a foggy wilderness where you might hear screams, whispers and echoes close by... yeah, Fear Dragons. Close from the Ledge of the Choice, the Shadow Forest, a black forest with night creatures and infested of shadows, you might think it's dangerous... but appearances lie.

JUNGLE MAZE: Center of the Dark Lands, this is a foggy tropical maze, a jungle of poison and disgrace, one of the most dangerous places to be in. Some old ruins reside around... maybe from the Forerunner era? Also, the Silent Swamp, the name isn't like that for fun, the most dangerous creatures sleep under those waters and ya better be around once they're awake. Close by there is part of the river leaving to a different direction and turned into a blood river, Blood Twist, a place where Blood dragons reside and share a vampiric tribe with some dragons. South of them, the Aether Strike, a crater from the second Aether thunder strike which created a mini biome of purple grounds and flora. In the opposite side, the Phantom Mountain, a place where is not recommended to pass through as well some paranormal events happen in there. Then, the Snake's Throat, a place where are the most "sane" Tropical Dragons sharing place with a Mystical Dragon under the waterfalls (river's end).

ASH LANDS: Also named as Burning Lands, a place with Hot Springs zones and lava rivers. Vulcano is the name of the volcano that resides there which is mostly awake, but Magma Dragons and Smoke Dragons do not mind that at all. In difference with Blazing Craters, there is only sleeping craters. Beach of Ashes is how the name is, a beach which sand is actually cinders and ashes from the volcano biome. Left to them, Obsidian Mountain, a pure mineral island, explorers tend to go there for minerals, usually Metal Dragons; above 'em the Petrified Islands, a desertic place where there's no color and only skeletons and dead flora, nobody knows how or why but looks like the place is haunted as the name says.... there are petrified dragons and creatures... is there a ghost? But what all brave visitors had in common, and neighbours (Magma and Smoke Dragons) is that there are strange creatures, shadows lurking by... just when there is only one looking.

DESTINY'S REACH: Where Time Dragons and Arcane Dragons reside, a place of peace, performance and knowledge share (also guarded by the Kronos Gates and enchanted). They are ready for anything, a beach of white sand (just like in the Moonlight Bay) to share with Water Dragons, The End's Refugee (a big cave under the mountain as a bunker if something happens but also for homeless dragons in search of need and care) and the Library of Existence where a big temple full of books remains (the most important place in the whole planet). They share land with the Sound Dragons in the Top of Rhythm and the Harmony Islands, a glowy archipelago of shiny waters due to the glowing plankton living in there. As well, the Night Light Reef, a glowing dark paradise where usually Hidden Light Dragons hide, but they are accepted in the Destiny's Reach as well.

BEYOND KNOWN: Here is where we become... a bit darker. Passing the Astral Path (under water path broken underneath it into an abyss), we arrive to a land... where nothing but ruins and weird looking flora is around. No living creature is there, not even dragons... or is what you think, the cold and the silence chill your bones and can become a torture of loneliness out there, this place is a treasure of the past and Forerunner relics but... at what cost? Very few managed to come back... Only Ice Dragons could, as well, they can see the big island from their region, and those landscapes through the Icy Edge, is a shivering bad feeling (not even Astral Dragons wanted to get their paws into that land, what do they know that we don't?).

DARK SECTOR: Getting more far away from the white sands, comes the second most dangerous place (almost same danger level as the Hell Gates Abyss). The Dark Sector was named as such for the paranormal looking creatures and corrupted lands, who tried to go to the Dark Sector... couldn't come back in one piece (or not even come back). Some say is a place of evil, of souless creatures and cursed place. While others explorers that did had the bravery in group to search inside the place, slowly getting darker, and the world, the sky... is gone; only a gasp, a thin sound of your breath... and the rest is death, you become a part of the land, dead or alive. A quiet place... where the place curse your mind and your body slowly, corrupting you, consuming you until you die, or become part of this paranormal place.

FORBIDDEN ISLAND: The name says it, and the look of it curses and brings shivers to anyone who it looks at it. This island is completely unknown, nobody knows what resides, what happens, if there is life or not. Some name the island "The Curse" or "The Never Return", but only water dragons could reach the place, a place where the light of the sun never reaches, a place where only silence is there, everything is dark, black and slowly if you keep watching, eyes are gonna be looking at you, slowly approaching you on each blink... until you see nothing but your lungs collapsing from lack of oxygen. Nobody can go there, only if curiosity kills you in the act. A little fact, Magma and Smoke dragons are the ones that see most of the paranormal activities in the area of the islands nearby, as they report... it seem those cursed lands are slowly cursing the Ash Lands.

Thanks for reading, for any curious question you've got... comment! I'm enjoying so far this fun project of world-building :>
