Hibernia

Hibernia is a green and misty continent that rests in the center of a chasm in which the oceans of seven oceans flow, tethered by four great bridges of emerald glass. These seven oceans are the pathways by which the seven generations of destined invaders arrive upon it, and the four bridges are the destined sites of four great cycles of heroic bloodshed.

Hibernia is a place currently ruled by the fifth generation of invaders, the Tuatha, who preside over the faeirie princedoms of the Fair Folk and the conquered peoples who came before them. It is under siege by the Milesians, the sixth people, torn at from inside by the Unseelie Sidhe, Fairie Kings and Princes who wish vengeance upon the humans and crave the power to ascend to godhood.
