Hwoun

Hwoun is one of the five Elemental-majority states in the United Elemental Nations, home to the majority of Saudade's Hwou Elementals. It is located on the southwest portion of the Mainland, sharing a border solely with Tarye, which is located to its north and east. There are a number of small islands attached to Hwoun which are easily accessible by boat—or in Hwoun Elemental cases—by utilizing magic.

Hwoun is best known for its numerous exports. The most capitalistic of the United Elemental Nations, most of its residents make their living through trade; the most common professions are fishermen, carpenters, artists, weavers, and tailors. Additionally, Hwoun Elementals seem to have a natural talent for healing, and a large amount of them are employed outside their homeland as doctors or nurses.

Other than Tarye, Hwoun is the least urbanized of the nations, and faces an equal number of economic troubles. With little work within Hwoun, its inner infrastructure has been heavily affected by large numbers of its people emigrating for their jobs. Despite this, Hwoun still remains the most culturally and spiritually active state of the United Elemental Nations, containing the most Fayshins and theaters.
