| The world of [[Aetolia]] consists, as far as its denizens currently know, of a single planet made up of several massive landmasses, known as '''regions'''. Used in the game's context, a region shares similarities with a [[plane]], especially in that players cannot see players on another continents or islands, or communicate with them in any way but [[messaging]] or [[letters]].

| | |
| === Regions of Aetolia ===
| |
| [[Sapience]]
| |
| * The main landmass of Aetolia, and notably the (current) largest, this is where most of the activity and content of the game resides.
| |
| | |
| [[Polyargos]]
| |
| * A small island off the west coast of Sapience, accessible by a [[ferry]] in [[Scidve Cove]]. Said to be the residence of a fearsome [[dragon]].
| |
| | |
| [[Ulangi]]
| |
| * A tropical island east of Sapience, in the [[Beryl Sea]]. Ulangi is home to the [[grook]] and [[horkval]]. It can be reached from the ferry just outside of [[Delos]].
| |
| | |
| [[Asper]]
| |
| * A freezing glacier, reached from the ferry in the [[Southern Tundra]]. It is home to a number of fearsome magical creatures and is extremely dangerous.
| |
| | |
| [[Albedos]]
| |
| * A massive, uncharted continent, confirmed to be much larger than Sapience. Notably home of the [[Drakkenmont Empire]], its reaches are still being explored and charted by Sapient citizens.
| |
| | |
| === Mechanical Ramifications ===
| |
| When arriving on a region, players are deposited into a [[instance|non-instanced]], segregated portion of the game, with its own maps, channels, and more. Certain limitations are put into effect while on a region apart from others:
| |
| | |
| * Most forms of communication are impossible. Players may speak on clans and other public channels as normal, but will not be heard by players in other regions, nor will they hear what those players are saying. Using [[orgtells]] (CTELLS, GTELLS, etc.) will show all messages, regardless of region.
| |
| | |
| * Players can receive messages and letters as normal.
| |
| | |
| * Cross-area transportation skills ({{skill|Lust Tarot|Lust}}, {{skill|Deliver}}, {{skill|Track}} etc.) do not function if the target is in another region.
| |
| | |
| * Players in other regions usually cannot be seen on [[Who Lists]], though occasionally [[Gods]] can be seen, and some skills may erroneously indicate the presence of [[Earthmeld|earthmelded]] [[Vampires]].
