Introduction
The name Dereth unites the familiar continents on which the story of Asheron's Call 2 takes place. Dereth was called "Ireth Lassel" by its original inhabitants, the Empyrean. Auberean is the planet that Dereth is on. The planet Auberean is huge and has not been fully discovered.
Continents
Dereth contains the continents:
Geography
Dereth is an isolated cluster of island continents formed by a volcanic mid-oceanic rift, found in the northern hemisphere of the planet, much like Iceland on Earth. warcry In size, Dereth has been compared to the state of Rhode Island (U.S.). Its climate is primarily temperate with distinct spring, summer, fall, and winter seasons. The environments are extremely varied, ranging from sub-arctic tundra on portions of the Linvak continent, to grass lands on Osteth, to tropical rain-forests on Omishan.
Dereth in Asheron's Call 1
The Dereth known by the players of AC1 was quite different:
"Dereth is an Island on the planet of Aurberean on which the game of Asheron's Call takes place. It is a small volcanic island in the northern oceans. Dereth is surrounded by several smaller isles: The Singularity Caul, Marae Lassel, Aphus Lassel, the Halaetan Isles, Aerlinthe, The Vesayen Isles, Vissidal, and the Dark Island."

Dereth in Asheron's Call 2
The continent of Dereth and its associated archipelago were dramatically torn apart by the mysterious cataclysm that took place chronologically after Asheron's Call 1's setting and prior to the beginning of Asheron's Call 2. The cataclysm left numerous geological features such as the circular crater north of the Southern Prosper Outpost. The original continent of Dereth was torn into the three new continents: Osteth, Omishan, and Linvak, while the outlaying island Marae Lassel became Arramora. Although changed, some historic features from the pre-cataclysm "Golden Age" survived, such as the Isle of Tears and towns such as Cragstone. Later players received access to the island of Knorr with the Legions expansion pack. ac.warcry.com
