Geologically speaking, the Continent is assembled out of at least 3 big pieces, former independent landmasses having rammed together from the south and east, hence the modest mountain range separating the Marid from the rest of the continent, and the really impressive range separating the East from the rest of the continent. There’s some ‘new’ land probably along an oceanic ridge clear to the far side of the planet, and the Southern Isle below the Marid is about as large as Mospheira, which is about half the size of Australia, as I view it. * Defender (2001) - Locus SF Award nominee, 2002 * Invader (1995) - Locus SF Award nominee, 1996 * Foreigner (1994) - Locus SF Award nominee, 1995
