==High Kyros==  

The people of High Kyros migrated across the White Sea from another continent several centuries ago, settling along the cold southern coast and slowly expanding their influence inland through the rugged terrain, displacing the easternmost Ascarian blood-clans.  High Kyros today is a nation of stern order under the command of the Frost Council, a magocracy of practitioners of cryomancy.  Kyros now aggressively pushes against the Ascarians, using terrifying war-magics against the southerners.  Despite the absolute authority of the ice mages, some of the inland towns and fiefs are remote and far from many Kyros 

It is said that the cryomancers can carve and animate vast ice golems through week-long rites, wrenching animated siege-constructs from the flanks of glaciers.  It is also said that there are strange, almost reptilian bloodlines amongst the people of High Kyros, though these are rare and largely kept secret from outsiders.
