Map of the cities of the Sea Plains, also known as Seikai. Rusthaven, while technically part of the Sea Plains, is ethnically grouped with Frost. Natives of the Sea Plains (such as Kiönne, Zalphyon, Refrax, Tsumatri, Youraillion, Marcielle, the Marcell family, and Ky) are notable for their black or dark brown hair and Japanese features. The native language of Seikai is called Umino, though Lunarian is more often used in Riverrun and Grace.
Morning, the coastal town farthest Sunside, has a rustic atmosphere. Formerly known as Asahi, it is best-known for its beautiful park, the produce it farms and exports, and its friendly inhabitants. The climate is warm and wet, especially toward the coast, along which are stretches of rice paddies. Renatus has a house in Morning.
Grace, formerly known as Kaihi, is the coastal town between Morning and Aevran. It is best-known for its unique sports stadium, which makes use of zero-gravity for advanced strategy and combat games, and for being the home of a famous scientist. Being based around a center of innovation, it's comprised of taller buildings than the other cities, and has a larger population density, though it seems smaller than the farming town of Riverrun, which is more spread out due to its agricultural origins.
Riverrun used to be called Kawanonagare. The other inland town, besides Rusthaven, it's moderate-sized, taking up slightly more square acreage than Grace, and located in a valley. It has a rustic atmosphere, and is best-known for its fine dining, and its museum of artifacts from the old city. All sorts of old artifacts are still lying around the area, too, for tourists to appreciate. Riverrun is the home of Dave Muldoon.
There are ruins between Grace, Riverrun, and Frost. There used to be a large city there, the crown jewel of Draconighli's kingdom, Covent. Due to this influence and the later influence of Cracus and Rilo, Grace and Riverrun have a good percentage of non-native Sea Plains people who have taken on their customs and ways. Also, after the fall of the kingdom of Frost, many of the previous inhabitants have moved into Riverrun and Grace. So both cities have a large percentage of Frost natives.
Aevran, the town farthest Starside, is small and isolated, with a quaint atmosphere. It is best-known for its shrine to Aevra and its diverse population. Before the Great War, it was named Hoshino, and became home to the Mythou Aevra, who often used her powers to help its people. In remembrance and gratitude for her contributions, they named the place after her after she had to leave Terra for Sinis. Now, though, Aevran is slowly turning into a ghost town as its inhabitants abandon it for the larger town of Riverrun.
