== History ==
 
The northern ice shelf has been around for a long time, but in recent ages since the crystals shattered, its rate of growth appears to have exceeded the natural realm. '''Kaizei''' as it's generally referred to, is the coldest place in the world and generally inhospitable, unless sheltered well from the weather.
There isn't a lot of human history to tell about this place since there are only a few people living in this cold part of the world. [[Legacy Nivalis|Nivalis]] and [[Legacy Mangarron|Magarron]] were almost unaffected by the [[The Great Quake|Quake]] as most of the buildings and boats survived the disaster. [[Legacy Nivalis|Nivalis]] (the capital of '''Kaizei''' could even afford to send some boats filled with supplies to answer the call for help that [[Legacy Tulimshar|Tulimshar]] sent just after the cataclysm. [[Legacy Thermin|Thermin]] was a bit more messy than the other places, but after two years, most of the damage was fixed. A few years later, the [[Tempus|Tempurians]] tried to invade '''Kaizei''', but they were kicked off by the Mangarrs.
 
== Environment ==
 
The beasts of the area are diverse.  There are some vicious monsters in the area, especially [[Legacy Blue Slime|Blue]] and [[Legacy White Slime|White Slimes]], as well as the formidable [[Legacy Yeti|Yeti]], but they are valuable in their commodities.  There are many non-aggressive monsters too, including [[Legacy Fluffy|Fluffies]] and [[Legacy Pollett|Polletts]]. Due to some of these monsters, who made their way into the ground to live quietly, the continent is filled with caves of various size. The most common plants in this part of the world are the spruce trees and the [[Legacy White Bell|White Bell]]. The coal found by [[Legacy Moggun|Mogguns]] in the underground is a proof that this land was a beautiful jungle once.
 
== Society ==
 
Most of those who choose to call this unforgiving realm "home" reside in a solitary fortress-kingdom, of which very little is known. What is known is that the people there believe the growth of the glacier to be a glorious (not to mention gradual) process, possibly even showing divine favour. Whether they are directly responsible for its recently exceptional growth spurt is uncertain, but people have been speculating as such.
 
Hunters and bandits are about the only other people you run in to out here in the sparcely populated big white land. You may pass some on your travels.
 
The locals of the area are wary of strangers, considering such things as the attacks just after the earthquake, and also that monsters that used to be calm are now aggressive. So there is no need to be offended by their cautious attitudes, but it is good to recognise the troubles that this area has seen.
 
== Towns ==
 
=== Nivalis ===
 
Nivalis is in a mountain region famous for its hot springs. Its host sage is Santa Claus. Several magical races and creatures associated with the power of Santa exist in the area. The main economy of Nivalis is hunting. They export lots of meat, furs and iced water all over the world.
 
=== Mangarron ===
 
A Barbarian village and home of the Mangarr, a regional race of large humanoids. The village is mostly composed by tents that the Mangarr use as fully-fledged houses.
 
=== Thermin ===
 
A technologically advanced town. It is home of the Therminor, a regional race of short, stocky humanoids. The Therminors generally tend to stay in their town as they are often misjudged by strangers and they anyway have everything they need where they are. They also fear that their technology could be used for bad purposes which gives them another reason to avoid the contact with the strangers. They get their food without even hunting with automated traps set all over their Thermin and they also found a way to make agriculture in frozen lands.
 
==Notable Persons==
 
===Santa Claus===
 
A bit south of Nivalis there is a house only opened to visitors during the Christmas period. Santa Claus lives there with his helpers. The residence is far bigger than it looks from the outside because of a spell.
 
===The Blue Sage Nikolai===
 
Deep inside the snow forest there is a house called Blue Sages'residence. This mansion is full of books and recently [[Blue Sage Quest|it began to be full of slimes too]]. Its library is known in many places as it's normally free of access. The residence is far bigger than it looks from the outside because of a spell. Nikolai seems to be a close friend of Santa Claus. As he does, Nikolai have helpers doing all the work he can't.
 
===[[Angela's Daughter]]===
 
Cindy the daughter of Angela who lives near Nivalis has the strange talent of being caught again and again by the yetis of the region who seems to really like to put her in a cage.
