Many years ago after paradise was open some of the lunar flowers were tainted and some even transformed into animals. These animals are called lunar beasts that haunt the night and are only regaurded as myths to the humans. The flowers who were tainted but didn't shift are known as tainted flower maidens. The five Lunar Beasts tracked and hunted the bloodlines of the original five who opened paradise. Many years later humans started moving in and four new noble families emerged holding no ties to the originals from the old world.

The city of vale is surrounded by a large stone wall around thirty feet high. The walls are made one with the halls that surround the castle and consist of many levels which are guarded all day. At the only entrance to the city there is a great arch and a colossal reinforced door. As you enter you’ll find it’s like a great hall in which you must pass through before entering the city. is quite busy with the amount of people passing in and out. At the end of the hall, near the city, there is another gate. This one, however, is made of metal bars that wrap in an fascinating design and another pair of wooden doors that open in instead of out.
The city of Vale houses one of the largest squares in the world. In the middle is a large fountain with elaborate status that seems to touch the sky. Many people like to toss in coins and make a wish. You never know, it might come true. The footing is made up of different size stones that hold a creamy color and a tint of green. The square is always busy with people trying to get here and there. Every thing eventually leads back to the square making it hard to get lost.
The Atroce District is more like a sub-city than an actual district, contrasting greatly with the City of Vale on many levels. You can find people on the lower-end of the social class spectrum residing in the poorly made ghettos, or even sometimes sleeping on the streets. The residents here are often more trusting of the wild beasts than even their fellow humans, making this the only place in the entire city where an animal would even dare to think about shifting back into their true form. It is not uncommon to also hear the residents speak badly of the noble families and the society they have created that revolves around wealth not everybody has. The only non-residential humans you would see around here are the police, or the occasional curious passer-by.
The City offers a variety of housing that lines the town square and numerous other streets. Each person gets their own house chosen to fit their needs. It is optional to share a home if wanted. Housing must be applied for in order to receive a home.
Town the main street that connects to the town square, there is the Market Lane. It is the busiest street of all Vale City. Here are shops that you may have never even heard of. Each store has something new and exciting to bring to the table. Most of the people are nice but be careful for those who fool you. If you’re new some people will take advantage of that and try to raise the prices on you if you’re not careful. This is also the longest road in the City as well. There are shops, tents, or stands that offer a different array of goods.
The gates to the noble homes are guarded day and night. There is an open bath that leads to the courthouse that breaks into four paths, all which lead to a separate building. Each building is similar yet different at the same time. Each one houses a different noble family. Each building has a good distance in between them. You can see the place from the town square as it’s on the main road straight through. The buildings are beautiful as if they were built for kings. No noble family is bigger or better then the other, all respect each other and for the most part, get along.
This strip mall is incredibly large, bringing in most of the income for this town without the actual strip mall feel. It's about 12 to 15 shops set up on a long, looping layout- one which every other turn off of the main walk will, without a doubt, bring you to the main focus of this town; the Casino. From an ariel view, one can clearly see the shops are layed out in a flower sort of shape, with the casino sitting right in the middle. At night, the malls and walk are lit up brilliantly with dazzling lights and structures, making the only thing easily visible from outside of the city, whether on land or on the ocean.
Located in the middle of the city, the square holds a variety of fountains for display, as well as fountains that spurt up right from the ground for the kids to play in. Though quieter than it would be around the casino or the malls, it's still crowded with tourists that try to get pictures with the masterpieces of anything between stone and marble, mixed with the locals just trying to get where they need to be. Surrounding the square is nothing but hotels and homes, making this one of the more crowded areas of the town.
quite a ways off from the noisiness of the city, you'll see in the distance a pier- one that's mainly used for importing and exporting various goods and machines. More often than not, you'll find a few lovers here every now and again during the night when it's not as heavily monitored; slip the deckhands a few bucks though, and they'll be in their merry way- having never seen you in their life.
A mile or so from the pier, away from all of the industrial noises of loading equipment, is the Mombasa beach. It stretches out over a good 20 or so miles, white sand and turquoise water making this area somewhat busy, but near as busy as the strip or the square. Spread throughout the length of the beach are various palm trees and large trees, uprooted and dead- the sun and salty air bleaching the wood white and making for surprisingly study play-areas for the kids. The water is crystal clear, allowing you to see down to the very depths up until it gets to 105 feet. Many tropical fish and other marine life are found in abundance, usually hanging around the reefs only a good 40 or so feet from the shore.
It’s a large meadow that touches the city and continues for miles upon miles to the outskirts of paradise. It’s covered in lush green grass and shady trees here and there. It’s a good place to have a run since it’s very open and clear. Some humans travel here for picnics but are wary because of the animals that are said to dwell here. The grass ranges from short to knee high. There is abundant bug life which consists mostly of winged bugs such as the butterfly.
The vast expanse reaches the Astral Ridge that acts like a barrier between paradise and the city. The rocks touch the sky but every animal knows that secret patch that easily leads though it. Some humans have died trying to pass over the mountain and any human lucky to find the secret patch is most likely met with the animals that guard it and are never seen again. The path seems to glow with life with a mysterious fog that is always there. You can never see the sun when you’re on the path but you can feel it.
Once out of the path you walk a little ways and the fog will lift and the sun will greet you. Once this happens you are instantly hit with the scent and sight of lunar flowers. They cover the valley from head to toe. Miles and miles of them can be seen and it’s not uncommon to see animals playing around. The sun is always bright with the occasional rain which in turn brings more life.
Toward the forests there is an Oasis in which is abundant with like and surrounded by tall trees. It’s the best cool out and water spot in all of Paradise. Sometimes it becomes frozen but a quick jab at it will break the ice really quickly. There is fish life as well for feeding purposes. The waters are clear with a blue tint. Towards the bottom it’s slightly darker. How deep it is exactly is unknown at this moment.
A little ways from the Oasis is the forests in which most of the animals live. It is pretty well known to the animals but to a human if there were ever to make it this far would surely be lost forever. Most of the trees look exactly the same so telling where you’re going is difficult. Most of the sun is blocked out till you reach deeper and it starts to thin out. Its home to most of the animal life in Paradise and is well protected by those who live here.
Deep in the Clandestine Woods, where the trees are thick and tightly packed, and sunlight just barley makes it through the thick cover of leaves in the canopy, you come across a seemingly vibrant waterfall that gives off a sinister air. One would do well to avoid it, as if the lack of animal and plant life surrounding the area wasn't enough of a clue. For beyond the falling water lies the entrance to perhaps the most dangerous place in Paradise. The home of the Lunar Beasts. The home is more so like a series of caves that only the murderous five know by heart how to navigate, only a few hollowed out caverns used for 'rooms' and for gathering for meetings. There is no animal that has ever entered this place and seen the light of day afterwards, their fates unknown to all except for the ancient beasts. One would be considered suicidal to even consider entering the darkness of the labyrinth, and very few have even rumored in low whispers of seeing the beasts from afar, entering and leaving the hidden cave, sometimes with screaming and yelling victims. Nobody dares to speak of the sighting more than once, for fear that the beasts would come to claim them in the night....and they would be correct.
Continuing on past the Clandestine woods, even farther than the lunar beasts cave, you'll notice after a good number of hours that the trees start to thin out again, loosing their lush green foliage as the air becomes dryer, the temperatures rising higher than out in the other regions of paradise. Before long, the forest empties out to savannah-like plains, tall tan grass and sparse vegetation filling up the landscape. You can find the occasional watering hole or stream, though during the summer when water becomes scarce, some of the native predators and even some of the prey make the trek to the stellar oasis when they get desperate enough. Dwelling in these lands is a native tribe, past the first few mountains and in a gulley. The natives tribe is filled with animal shifters- the ;eader being a lunar beast named Lux, whom is unaware of his blood as a lunar beast.
Seen from nearly every area of paradise, and even in the city of vale, these mountain peaks are always capped with snow, their unforgiving climate making it hell for the few animals that are adapted to inhabit it. You can get to them through the Paramount Plains, though outsiders that make their way up either quickly make it back down before they get too far in, or end up falling prey to the occasional snow leopard or lynx, perhaps even to the rare clouded leopard. Nobody has dared to try going beyond these mountains, those foolish enough to try either dying from exposure to the cold, or never being seen or heard from again.
