Cloudrift

Cloudrift is a realm of towering peaks and sheer cliffs, where the mountains pierce the sky and clouds coil like living serpents around jagged spires. The region is perpetually shrouded in mist, giving it an ethereal, almost otherworldly feel. 

Originally uninhabited, Cloudrift became a Dominion stronghold after the Dragonkin migrated from the eastern jungles following the Ad’rath Meteor event. Seeking vantage points and natural fortifications, they carved aerie-like settlements into the cliffs and established control over the high-altitude passes. 

Today, Cloudrift serves as a military bastion and forge site, granting aerial supremacy over the Scarab Desert and Dustreach Divide. Since it's perpetually veiled in stormy mists, this region serves as the Dominion’s premier Dragonkin training ground, a place where warriors are honed for aerial supremacy and survival in harsh conditions.

Fallshore

Fallshore is a rugged port settlement where the roar of ocean waves meets the shadow of Avalonian peaks. Once a thriving human trade town, its docks and stone warehouses still bear the marks of their original builders. However, after a decisive Dragonkin campaign, the humans were expelled, and Fallshore was reforged into a Dragonkin stronghold. 

The settlement now bristles with obsidian watchtowers, scaled banners, and roosting platforms for aerial mounts. Dragonkin artisans have fused their architecture with remnants of human design, creating a striking contrast of curved spires and angular stonework. The harbor teems with sleek warships and merchant vessels, making Fallshore a critical maritime hub for Dominion-aligned Dragonkin.
