 Surface-dwelling humanoids eventually found other methods of adapting to the great dangers posed by kaijan and dinosaurs. It became known that dinosaurs are vulnerable to psychic energy; psionic casters, therefore, rigorously trained to ward off dinosaurs from their settlements. Other psions went farther, learning to briefly control and domesticate dinosaurs and incorporate them into their societies. Psionic sentinels and dino wranglers both enabled their societies to set permanent roots and offered them the means to resist the terrors of the kaijan.

-An ever increasing number of settlers took up residence in permanent locations across Telgaia. First, these settlements were individual nation-states incapable of governing beyond their own walls. Gradually, multiple cities banded together either through diplomatic ties or (more commonly) through conquest. These nations took shape over several centuries.
-Because Telgaia is a supercontinent, most precipitation that sweeps in from the vast ocean falls within a few hundred miles of the coast. Due to this, a massive desert sprawls across the center of the supercontinent. As a result, most nations reside near the coast, and shallow-water seafaring vessels are commonplace. Deep-sea vessels are virtually unheard of as most explorers assume that the ocean extends forever and try to stay within eyesight of a shoreline.
