Tok People of the Forgotten Islands

　‎　‎Some time in the past, long before the memory of the Tok people, the landmass to the southwest of Torgalia was inhabited by a mysterious people whose abilities and wisdom far surpassed anything the Tok had seen before; even stranger was the mystery behind why this entire region erupted into the sky and what happened to the mysterious inhabitants. A small number of strong-headed and inquisitive Tok people were awed by the mystery of the land and ventured to scale the shattered landmasses to reach the highest floating islands. Quickly the islands gained notoriety and drew those who were likewise amazed by the remains of the past. Showing great respect and reverence for the ruins, the islanders began to dig into the shattered edges of the islands, building structures and services deep underneath the ruin.
　‎　‎Over time the residents of the islands began to understand the way the ancient people used to live and what brought them to great power. Now, these Tok people called themselves the Dawi, a moniker derived from ancient ruins, they committed fully to adopting the lifestyles and ways of their chosen “ancestors”. The most sacred tradition the Dawi adopted was the idea that all good citizens must also be good soldiers. Each member of Danuvica, as the islands are known today, is required to serve the cities and their civil forces for up to half a century. This tradition is so ingrained in the Dawi, that even those that have never lived on the islands feel responsible to serve their new homeland in whatever way they can, often as long-standing and respected members of a city or royal guard. It is not only the ways of the past people that have transformed the Dawi, but the strange floating islands themselves, that the Dawi have resided on for generations.
