Mikhail Shelkov - Elinor. The Deserted Valley. Book 1

Elinor… a huge continent, situated in the middle of a boundless ocean. The nature of this world is rich and diverse — high mountains, deep forests, endless prairies, severe snows of the North and arid deserts of the South. Eight nations, originated from the Valley of the Ancestors, created their own governments in different parts of the continent: wise Djunits, reckless Guawars, fearless Itoshins, elucidated Ulutau, discreet Vedichs, mighty Taurs, inventive Tausmatus, careless Chekatta.
