the world you are see is much like what earth once was, but with more magic senitve races, mythic beasts and meddling anthropomorthpic personifacations. this worlds map is much like early drawning of earth but with the location of cultures farmilar but not identical to the mundane socities of this rock we call a planet being slighty different.
your location and the lifeform/s you are observing can wait intill later because first you must choose an item make a reasurgence, they are of nemrourus origins and power but that doesn't matter what does is how your observed [or your avatar if your that kind of enity] uses them or how it is used agenst them as the case may be,
here is a incomplete list said artifacts....
the time piece chronomatic [manipulates time of indervisual can effect reality if wanted]
the spell slinger's ring of reality [makes transformation magic affect reality]
the red thread of reversal [swaps the position of it's users in a culture/order/family/cast stytem]
the mirrior hermathra [swaps the gender of who every looks apon it changes there clothes too]
the amulet of genis [changes the race of the user i.e human to giant also revses animal curses]
and more
