 To the south of these are the Gorgades, a group of three islands inhabited by corsairs.East of Euskeria is the realm of Phaiaxia, a non-Euskerian country subject to Tartesia near the Thrinaxian Sea, and to the southeast Lake Tritonis, home of the warring Tritons and Amazons.Much of the series' political geography is derived more or less directly from the mythologies of classical Greece and other ancient Mediterranean peoples, elements of which were plausibly portrayed as deriving from the all but forgotten predecessor civilization of the Pusadian age.
