COG: The Great Nations of Rendaraia

The Great Nations of Rendaraia have stood for centuries as strongholds of culture, magical arts, scientific knowledge, and military strength. When, one by one, the Nations fall—each destroyed in a day, with no time for word or warning—the intrepid scholar Jan’Ka’Zian sets out to find the reason and record a vanishing world. 

Join Jan’Ka’Zian on his quest to document a network of intertwined cultures on the edge of destruction. From mighty airships powered by bioluminescent microorganisms to a city of gleaming towers built around colossal trees, the Great Nations of Rendaraia exist in a fully realized fantasy world as complex and inventive as those of Tolkien and Lewis. 

—Jenny Williamson, co-host of
Ancient History Fangirl

"Jayel Draco’s gorgeous illustrations present a vivid picture of elaborate cityscapes and mountain vistas, vast skyfaring fleets, and fantastic flora and fauna. While epic in its own right, Jan’Ka’Zian’s tragic story is one small thread in a larger tapestry: a tale of destruction, rebirth, magic, and transformation told in the world of Children of Gaia."

—Jenny Williamson, co-host of Ancient History Fangirl

"Rendaraia’s depth of lore is a shining example of fictional world-building. Not only are Jayel’s ideas about cultures and concepts deftly written and layered, but he’s a rare talent who can also translate those ideas into breath-taking imagery. The dense and thoughtful prose is frequently punctuated with carefully considered maps, touching vignettes, zealously depicted diagrams, and iconography so well designed that it doesn’t appear to have been created, but rather seems to have always been."

—Ryan Claytor, cartoonist and professor
