Wyca

It's time for the last of the Mystic Union, Wyca! Now you may look at the map and be like "Atlas, why is there an entire country on one little island?" Well, that's just the only Wycan island on sea level; The rest of the country is in the sky! Floating islands among the clouds is what the Wycans call home, connected by bridges.

(I'll get a map of the sky islands at some point when I get them all built in Minecraft, It'll just be a bit bc life is busy as hell and it's finals season rn)

Wyca is home to the Avians, people with bird-like wings and taloned feet. Avians are connected to the element of Air, and can manipulate it through spells, often using it to create wind gusts to aid their flight so they can glide.

Wyca's patron god is Astrophel, God of the stars and space. However, they also unofficially have another patron god; Odaal, God of Magic. Odaal is not an official patron god of any country, but has taken over for Astrophel in recent years as the star god has been missing. Magic is very important to Wyca's culture, so Odaal felt no problems taking part in Wyca's protection.

Wyca's government is... something. Every 15 years, the patron god(s) choose a King/Queen themselves, choosing from the three options the community selects. In between, it works mostly like a democratic monarchy. Each city has one elected representative that works as an advisor. Wyca doesn't have much of a military force, as over time it has shifted more to a symbolic status than a war-ready force, since none of Wyca's enemies are capable of reaching their islands alone and they decided they were defensible enough not to need it.

Temples to both Astrophel and Odaal are built on the highest island in the capital, near the castle. Much like Jinx's temple, offerings left in Astrophel's altar have piled up in his absence, both having disappeared at the same time.

That's it for Wyca, thanks for reading! :D Hope y'all are having a great day/night
