Terrain and Climate
Kaltia
The glacial line along the northern border of Kaltia has receded almost 20 miles, and with it the control of the giant kingdoms in that area has receded as well. Once perilous trips such as the pilgrimage to the well of tears and the Frozen road between Kaltia and Leyandra are now much easier and more frequented. Thanks to increased security on these lines, the voyages are more comfortable as well and some traders have begun moving between Leyandra and Kaltia for non-religious reasons.
Weather on the southern peninsula has become hotter and more humid, hurricanes and other summer storms have become much more frequent.
Nuln
Seismic activity has lead to some of Nuln's islands sinking and others rising to the surface, as well as wreaking havoc on most of the rest of the continent.
Contrary to Kaltia, Nuln has had mild summers for the past 10 years. Though, mild to Nuln still implies many tropical storms. Merchants still use the shimmering gulf almost exclusively during the worst summer months. Use of other ports have increased minutely, but significantly.
Leyandra
The receding glacial line has continued over to Leyandra, where the elves have enjoyed new expanses of farmable land. Land prices (around Pallenon especially) have fallen slightly in response.
Increased temperatures in the western regions have led to swampland drying up during spells in the summer. This has caused the Swamp Lily to become even more rare than it was. Elven ecologists are attempting to raise the plant outside of it's natural habitat in order to preserve the plant for the future.
Banato
Warming in the region has led to shallower, murkier rivers. Wild elves are rapidly attempting to expand northward to escape the deadly heat and find cleaner water. Riscana has already suffered many attacks along the borders of the Sasarai.
Riscana and Tyren
Outside of some minute changes in temperature and volcanism along the northern ridge mountains, largely unchanged.
Elem
The southern peninsula has become significantly more livable and arable, allowing some upstart farm communities to take root. Helping Elem's shortage of fertile farmlands.
Ohnben
A few of the desert oases important to desert migration have dried up under increased temperatures. Nontheless, Ohnben continues to survive.
