Emabaze

Emabaze is an archipelago in the South Sea. Emabaze spans over twenty major inhabited islands and an unknown number of smaller uninhabited islands.

Geography
The main body of Emabaze is spread across twenty volcanic islands.

The southern most island contains the settlement of Causium, which is not culturally Emabaza. The island was granted by a previous high judge to Fenizian refugees after the civil war due to its uninhabited nature. It has since become a moderately wealthy port city trading in exclusive resources found along the Arborican coast.

Politics
Emabaze is ruled by a High Judge who inherets the position as past from teacher to student, and not through bloodlines. Each inhabited island has an appointed judge that answers directly to the high judge and acts as the sole governer of their island.

The role of high judge can be traced back to the original unifier of the southern islands Gotoshu Hukiru who refused to be crowned as a king and instead enforced a philosophy on his new nation, this philosophy would become the basis of Emabaze law and his favoured student, Mamaka Yioka.

Magic
Magic is the primary domain of a select caste of Emabazen warriors who almost exclusively use techniques that work in tandem with their weaponry.

Religion
The figure of Emabazen worship is a singular warrior god, represented by the moon, who protects the people from the beasts and monsters of the land, sea, and sky. However, this spirituality does not intrude on everyday life for the most part and secludes itself to festival days spread throughout the year.

Technology
Emabaze is the prime developer of seafaring and naval progress in the Known World and have worked closely with Antea and the Isles of Anvil.
