Kalsema: The Lands of the Long Light (Isekai Homebrew Setting)

[Marcarius5555]

What are the remnents of Hexpodean technology that are around? Or remnents of the hexapodeans themselves (as far as most people know, I accept in these cases there's ALWAYS some mysterious remnent hiding in a demiplane).

Were the Dragon Learners, according to records, loyal to the Dragon Lords themselves, or was it two factions who overthrew their masters together, and then fell to infighting?

You've mentioned that Underdark peeps are around, Drow, Duergar etc - where do they fit in, were there any Drow Dragon Teachers?

There are abundant remnants of the hexpodean civilization on Chamadron and the other nearby continents especially Bha'al-Zhaugor, where their ancient tombs are frequent cites in the deep desert.

The accounts of the Palash Namqua are written in an extremely elusive and prolix style -- the entire section which purportedly concerns the conflict itself is essentially unreadable. The portion leading up to the war and its aftermath are divided by an enormous section that even the wisest sages can essentially read the odd verb or proper noun. The part before indicates there was some kind of opposition between these two servants of the dragons, and then the story picks up intelligibly again when the dragons are gone, or asleep, or otherwise somehow not there anymore. The whole matter is one of the great historical mysteries.

There is a Drow civilization below the Domain of Charon (or Choran, depending, with some many variations, on whether one speaks Karun or Tuenuen) known as Kyaeren. Not much is known of their civilization, as their route to the service is contested by the Steam Elves of Nisoroch, a client city-state of Charon/Choran. The Mist Elves claim that their rulers are the only surviving Dragon Teachers, though they only claim this to those who are aware these entities exist, mostly they deny that they exist to outsiders. It seems very likely that others exist, and might include the Drow of Kyaeren, or some other dark elf culture in another clime of the world.

The ametrine dragons of Syranix are in fact ascended dragon-drow; their whole double double cross of their kobold servants is related to this ancient war. They were imprisoned during the war in a crystal cocoon on the continent of Sraan-Graba'al, to the east of Syranix and the Sundered Seas region. The kobolds there dug them up and thought they were reviving their ancient forebearers, but in fact placed themselves at the service of their ancient enemies. The had a conflict with the inhabitants of the city state from which they hailed, who tried to tell them there was something iffy about these particular dragons. To return to Kalsema, there are rumors among the mist elves that there is a radiance dragon (and unusual ascended draconic servant of the 'makers' (the white spheres)' -- some of the greatest sages of the mist elves are partially aware of this secret history
