The largest body of freshwater in the realm. The sea rises and falls each day, bringing all manner of sea life to the shores of the regions surrounding it, providing sustenance to clans of all elements. So vast is this sea, that the shorebound observer would see only the faint silhouette of the surrounding lands on the horizon. It is beneath this colossal well that water dragons spend their lives, traversing the deeps and sharing visions of the futures they foresee.

Subregions[]
Tsunami Flats[]
A becalmed coastal stretch of shoals and giant tidal pools. Dragons occupy the pools, burrowing into the loamy sand and shaping half-submerged underwater caves with their small, but growing magics. Sustenance, in the form of amphibious reptiles and fish, is abundant. Although seemingly a frontier, it is at these shores that the Water God is most able to protect his charges, employing tidal wave defenses to menace away aggressors.
Drowned Sanctum[]
An ancient magical apparatus built to monitor the ley energies flowing throughout the Sea of a Thousand Currents. The Drowned Sanctum provides invaluable analysis on the strength of latent water magic and relays it directly to the Oculus of the Eleven, where it is monitored and researched by skilled magisters and scholars.
Fishspine Reef[]
The coral here roots deep into the dried marrow of gargantuan bones left behind from an ancient battle in a forgotten era. Whether these remains are of monstrous fish, dragons of yore, or something completely other, the Fishspine is crowded by a lost history, sunken artifacts, and drowned spirits.
Guardian dragons are a native species of the Fishspine Reef.
Churnscar Wharf[]
Nestled on a previously submerged tropical peninsula, this bustling harbor now acts as a vital shipping port and go-between for seafaring dragons of every stripe. Seeking to repair and revitalize what was lost during the destruction wrought by an elemental maelstrom, water dragons use this centralized location to provide invaluable services to a growing realm.
Leviathan Trench[]
The deepest part of the world. The sea beneath the sea is a treacherous and savage place possessing of an unforgiving undertow and precious little light. Many wonders are said to exist here - more relics of prehistory - shrouded, even from the Tidelord's gaze, by a silty, unbroken twilight occupied by alien fish, and far worse. It is in the safety of the cliff faces that the flights dig their homes, and into the unknown that their bravest dare dive.
Shoredeep Presage[]
Every burgeoning oracle has made a pilgrimage to the Shoredeep Presage. A network of sea caves lead would-be seers to deep ritual chambers where their desperate pleas usually yield the first of many prophecies from the Tidelord himself. Silence now grips these tunnels, and those who venture there emerge only with disappointment.
The Spiral Keep[]
An immense conch, settled and pressed into the very bottom of the seabed. The pressure here is so intense, that the integrity of this mysterious structure is pressed to its limit, nearly imploding under the weight of the water churning overhead. Within this dreary coil, the Tidelord bellows and moans his prophecies, which are carried to the surface by way of billions of tiny bubbles.
Flotsam Town[]
After having their coastal lairs destroyed by a powerful hurricane, dragon clans came together and constructed this sprawling town from the wreckage of their former homes. Those that live, work, and play here have a tremendous bond forged from the collective loss they endured and are among the most welcoming communities in the realm. It may not be the tidiest village on Sornieth, but the tenacity and kindness of its denizens has made Flotsam Town a badge of pride floating in the midst of the central sea.
