Lathe

Lathe is a massive and arid region west and south of the White sea in Utania, mostly comprised of desert and rough hilly terrain with sparse shrubland. This region was much once more wet than dry, being considered a birthplace of civilization. It is also where the language of Pehru initially began. but over the course of several thousand years desertification caused the region to become unwelcoming for large amounts of people to live in. A few old and established cities still remain in the region, most of them on the shores of the White Sea, such as the port city of Kos-Obbyn, a hub of trade on the sea it lives on.

During the First and Second Orgen wars, This region was subjected to heavy wartime Trauma as Orgen forces engaged with Tanessian, Zarwonian, Polarian, Keldik, Vyoxia, Lekemian, and Abzalian confrontation. An estimated near hundred thousand people are thought to have been killed or MIA in the lathe desert during both of the wars, with the casualties rising after the Orgen made it into the Central Utanian Mountains, eventually taking over Keldin during the first war. They didn't make it as far the second time, however.
