And now, for your daily exploration hub knowhow, it's time for....  'REGIONS N'EYRE AND FAR'
 
In today's show we'll be exploring the mysterious and beautiful region of... Kyendi, and it's sextuple waterfall tier extravaganza and the gorgeous jewelled terraces surrounding one of Kyendi's major cities, Sulapei.
 
Below the tall rounded peaks of Kyendi's famous mountain range, the Rajasana mountains, lies the beautiful city of Sulapei. A city of various small towns nestled between the Mistmere and the lower lands of Kyendi, several of the towns are surrounded by beautiful terraces, and during the summer look like jewels adorning the sides of the mountains. These terraces, are actually home to some of Kyendi's most well known produce a form of rice that thrives in the vapours of the mist. Throughout the spring, the terraces are filled with water, and locals plant various types of rice in the terraces. As summer comes around, they carefully man the water filled terraces, irrigating the water, to flow down in small waterfalls between each terrace, finally emptying out into the lake further down from Sulapei. During this time, the rice grows in various shades of gold, green and a blueish hue, giving the terraces surrounding Sulapei a mystical feel as if it's surrounded by shimmering jewels that waver in the wind. By the time Autumn comes around, it's harvest time and the plants are carefully cut down for food and sent all across the Eyre. Harvest Festivals are common around this time of year and make it the perfect time to visit Sulapei. We recommend visiting during the Summer or Autumn to get the most out of this picturesque town. 
 
Aside from the beautiful jewelled terraces, if you're more of the adventurous kind, you can hire a local to take you to the tiered waterfalls hidden away deep in the Rajasana mountains. It's a 6 hour hike from Sulapei but well worth the travel. Hidden amongst a grove of trees and a ruined archway, lies one of the most fantastical sights in Kyendi. A waterfall, that flows down into another waterfall... which flows into a third waterfall... into a fourth, fifth and finally sixth waterfall! Known as the tiered waterfalls of Kyendi, the fantastical rushing water flows down rushing out of the Rajasana mountains, and down to the lands below, fuelling the water that locals use to farm their jewelled terraces and out into the open sea. While extremely beautiful to look at, the rushing rapids of water flowing down the waterfalls, are dangerous and adventurers are recommended only to visit the area, around the ruined archway, or apply to join the Kyendi ruin investigation team. Recent archaeological discoveries in the area have led to the belief that this was once a place of worship to an ancient god of water. However, more research is needed to learn more about the past and the Kyendi ruin investigation team is keen for more adventurers to join and help them in their efforts to research the surrounding area.
 
Well, that's all for today folks! So, if you're ever in Kyendi feel free to stop by Sulapei and see the beautiful jewelled terraces surrounding it. Otherwise, if you're looking for a fantastic place to take photos, visit the six tiered waterfalls of the Rajasana mountains, it's sure to take your breath away!
