'''Ascalon''' is the western, temperate [[Continents|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.

See [[Biomes and Resources]] for how protected resources work across Loka.

== Biomes ==

The continent of Ascalon is home to temperate biomes, from the birch-lined shores near Aladra to the untouched depths of the Ancient Forest.
