The Lost Continent

The Lost Continent was one of he world's four largest continents. When one of its kingdoms was destroyed with magical fire 1,200 years ago, the fire continued to spread over the course of a year until the entire continent was gone. What remains is now a swirling locus of multihued flames in the middle of the ocean, which sailors both use to navigate and carefully avoid.

During the destruction, many families from the continent fled down, into the Underworld, and the majority who survived the ordeal later migrated to Wisteria. Some Wisterian fashions, such as kimonos, originate from the Lost Continent.
