This one is worded a bit bad. If you think of the Fall as an ongoing process, that started with the kaezulians razing the faydarks, reaching its conclusion in the actual year of the Fall, it makes sense.

Liking the new Centaur Hills description.
Changed some with the Eldenal's Mansion description. Used the phrase "leading up to the Fall" to be clearer. Best I can tell, the "2 dynasties" thing is indicative of 2 sides of a family fighting for power, which explains tarlisha betraying eldenal, and then we know that eldenal's family all died, but that might not include tarlisha's side of the family... (tl;dr I think I get it now)
Shortened Freeport's description, but added a little to emphasize it as the birthplace of the Younger Races. Also, the word "Reunification" was capitalized. Is there anywhere that specifically gives that name to the actions of Erandus Elthannar becoming the ruler all all of the races or describes it as "uniting" in any way?

Tasinath, Land of Bliss
Shiritri the Wind Queen created Tasinath as the purest expression of her own ephemeral nature. The realm is composed of floating islands joined by soaring crystalline bridges that reflect the last rays of an eternally setting sun in a spray of rainbow colored lights. On one island, immortal lovers reenact the courtships of millions before them again and again every night. On another, great prismatic birds trace glowing patterns in the sky as they exult in the pure joy of flight. In the few permanent structures of the plane capricious Djinni cast their minds to the aether in pursuit of chaotic arcana between bouts of carnal joy.
Guarded over by golems animated by pure spirits of air, Shiritri's followers hold themselves ever aloof from terrestrial concerns in favor of their own personal desires. The violence of the world below is not welcome here; planar travelers will be quick to learn this or face a very long trip down during which they may consider their mistakes.

Sorcerer's Labyrinth
The labyrinth was chiseled out of the frozen cliffs of the Great Divide long ago by a nameless sorcerer of theoretically immense power. A clan of kobolds adapted to the frigid climate has come to inhabit the physically improbable icy tower just past the entryway and seek to repel all invaders. Council of Innovation scholars theorize that the entire structure is held together solely by the residual magic of the long since gone sorcerer, rather than the relatively primitive spells of the kobolds.
Further in, explorers have reported being accosted by what can only be described as a "race" of xenophobic, sentient automatons composed entirely of ice and crystal. Showing an extreme dislike of magic, perhaps in remembrance of their creator, these golems profess allegiance to a being known as Eerizar. Who, or what, this Eerizar is, or what its goals may be, remain a point of intense investigation by the Council to this day.

Shortened Freeport's description again. The bit about the Erudites fit better with the descriptions of Erudin and Ruins of First City.
Changed Erudin's description to fill out that bit of lore.
Changed Ruins of First City's description slightly to be moire precise about this bit of lore.
... going back to alphabetical order ...
----------
Grobb's description is bugging me a bit. It doesn't mention the Trolls. Unless I'm mistaken, Grobb was founded by the Trolls.
The Iksar refugees that fled Ikisith founded the First City on what we now call the Erudian Island. The Erudite-Iksar mingling there from 2300-2000 BF is evidence to that. After the whole issue with the portal to the plane of fire, both races left that city, so I thought the Iksars just found new friends with the Trolls in Grobb.
Help needed with Grobb!

Siren's Grotto
The wyvern shores I did explore, seeking absentmindedly
there to mend my ways, there to walk upon the beach
and below I heard the mermaids singing, each to each.
I did not think they were singing for me.
Yet, there they linger in the chambers of the sea
the sea-girls that call with voices dark and fey
for once you come, you come to stay.
I am glad they did not call to me.
Beautiful and wondrous though she may be
I did not wish to serve the Lady of the Deep
sleeping peaceful there in her dank keep.
with a little help from The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock

Don't get me wrong, I really like your poem. But it isn't what we are looking for, sorry.

Suggest one. It has to be a fantasy stylish font though, so no arial or times new roman or the like!
