Trilok (Drelåkh in Khellakh) is the southernmost land mass on Ramath-lehi, surrounded by the Kaushal Ocean. It is the home of the Khell, an old pendragon subspecies known for being both brutal warriors and genius inventors. In some ways, that duality could be said to reflect on the continent as a whole; Trilok's main contribution to Ramath-Lehi's development is largely a technological one, but it doesn't take much to find a remnant of the continent's violent and bloody history - both between Khell cities and against forces from outside.
Cities
- Cronvint (Crønvint, "green winter")
- Capital
- Largest city
- Sometimes called "the fortress which defies the coldest winters". This name may have come from the fact that it used to be a heavily-fortified citadel. The city has long since outgrown its original walls, but the central castle, Cronvintok, still stands proudly after thousands of years. The home of the Jarkorli family and Trilok's ruling parliament.
- Mawerlok (Mårlok, "locked jaws")
- Adamann (Ädamann)
- Takes its name from the Adamaint family, despite being located a good distance from the Adamaint Empire.
- Polsuden (Polsüden, "south pole")
- The closest city to Ramath-Lehi's south pole; at least, it was when it was first built. Also notable for being the continent's newest completely underground city.
- Volithin
- Takes its name from the Volithin family.
Notable 'Dragons
- Trilok's current head of parliament, often nicknamed the "Agony Aunt" by her detractors. As of 81,387 she's held the seat for close to three years.
- The current High Koeyrn (high king) of Trilok; however, as the position does not hold the absolute power it once had, he usually works alongside Trilok's ruling parliament.
- A former military officer; now a member of parliament. Known for his distinctive appearance as much as his quiet but decisive nature.
- A former member of the Council of Twelve.
