*[[Benhai]]
The Greater Continent is the name given to the main continent in the dimension of [[Arindell]]. The full extent of the continent itself is barely known, much like the extent of the dimension itself. During the [[Mage Wars]] much of the continent was held by the [[Marcon Alliance]] and housed both their capitol and jewel cities.

*[[Layloma Empire]]

*[[Marcon Alliance]]
Large regions of the continent were never re-inhabited after the Mage Wars, including the bulk of the interior (the Marcon capitol on [[Lake Bentika]] is thought to be nearly untouched since it was abandoned in [[B.G.A.]] 300). Additionally, there are numerous areas left polluted and dangerous. The great explorer [[Finious Aberton]] died of radiation exposure after a visit to [[Centered]].
 
 
 
==History==
 
The name was first used in the early [[Mage Wars#The First Chaotic Period|First Chaotic Period]] by a scribe writing in [[Sun's Beacon]], who recorded an effort to sail around the continent by early explorers. Archaeological excavations carried out in the [[Ages#The Second Age|Second Age]] found evidence that the expedition may have reached as far south as [[Seacrest Spire Flight#Seacrest Spire|Seacrest Spire]].

Dozens of locations on the greater continent have been mentioned so far, we'll start listing them here as soon as I feel like it.
