Re: Shape of Qualinost

Qualinost is roughly trapezoidal because it is bound and constrained by
two rivers.  Silvanost has the advantage of not having as many
obstacles in the way of geographical constraint.  Also, the Qualinesti,
in general, were not as taken with the idea of shaping their home to
their own standards; instead working a bit more with what the land
provided them (though that isn't to say that the Qualinesti didn't
indulge in a fair bit of their own "landscaping").
