Ascalon is the western, temperate continent, home to sprawling forests, open plains, and the mangrove coastline that has replaced its old marshlands. It is reached by boat from the docks on Aladra, aboard the Oakhart. Ascalon's northern shore lies along the Green Sea, while the Radiant Tides wrap its southern coast.
