Pyrrhia

Pyrrhia is a continent that serves as the main setting for the first and second arcs, also including the Legends and Winglets series. It is the location of the War of SandWing Succession and the Jade Mountain Prophecy. There are seven dragon tribes that naturally reside on the continent: NightWings, SkyWings, SandWings, RainWings, SeaWings, MudWings and IceWings. The continent is commonly referred to as the Distant Kingdoms by the dragons of Pantala, even long before its existence was ever proven outright in Pantala.

Description

Pyrrhia is a large continent, with many expansive and varied biomes and ecosystems, with each tribe typically living in and having their kingdoms within their natural environments and habitats. Its extent is typically not restricted to its landmass and can include the surrounding oceans and islands as well. The continent is similarly shaped to a dragon viewed from the side.

Some geographic regions include the Claws of the Clouds Mountains and the Bay of a Thousand Scales.
