The sixth level of Yliakum is known as the Lakeshore or sometimes as The Lagoon.

Environment

A semi tropical marshy mangrove forest, the humid air constantly filled with mist from the waterfalls cascading down from the Stronghold, two levels up.

Vast groves of trees sprouting citrus-like fruit grow from the rich, silty mud that forms the banks of the riverways. In and amongst the partially exposed roots swim exotic-looking fish found no-where else in Yliakum that enjoy the relative warmth of the waters.

Pools of water, topped up by spray from the waterfalls, are home to many types of shellfish, many of which are much sought after delicacies of the Klyros. If you want to brighten any Klyros' day, present them with a fresh crab from one of these pools.

Native Races

Escaping from the chaos of the Fifth Epoch during which the Ylian chased off all other races from The Dome, the Klyros found that the Lagoon suited their living needs perfectly, providing the fish and shellfish they covet, as well as providing a natural resource to trade to the other levels.

The presence of the waterfalls have made their way into the Klyros way of life, with groups of young Klyros racing each other up the vertical falls of water.
