Vaothan (pronounced VOW-than) is a nation around the Gulf of Timakal, once a colony of Sangiran but now independent. While the death of the Eternal Suzerain of Sangiran had drastic consequences for all former subjects of the empire, the people of Vaothan took it particularly badly. Abandoned by their god, a large proportion of Vaothanites renounced faith entirely and now form an officially atheistic society, albeit one that remains fractured by internal divisions.
