The different conditions in the two main population bands has created a unique society divided into "highlanders" and "lowlanders." The "highlanders" founded their cities in the mountains of Blight and Erubis, the two northern continents. These mountains were lashed by frequent windstorms; to protect their cities the highlanders built thick walls around them. In contrast to the approach taken by the highlanders, the "lowlanders" settled in low-slung sealed buildings that let the less powerful windstorms flow over them. The two very different lifestyles led to an "us vs. them" mentality that led to symbolic fights between the two groups as each tried to maximize their resources. The supercontinent of Karasia, just south of Blight, stretches all the way to the southern pole and claims the majority of the planet's landmass, metal ores, and gemstones.<ref name=DARWp38/> + Pike IV was settled originally for its large amounts of mineral wealth.
