Greetings Traveler! I will be your humble guide through this land. Listen well as I tell you of its many wonders.
This continent lies to the West of the Howken Forums, with which it maintains a vibrant, though sometimes uneasy, relationship. People from all nations of the High Tier Cabal Make frequent trips to the Forums, where they engage in trade, tourism, and business. The primary ruling body of the Howken Forums, know as the Democratic People's Republic of Howken, has embassies in each of the major cities of the High Tier Cabal.
To the north lies the EU Servers, with which High Tier Cabal is generally considered and ally. Cabalites that travel to EU Servers generally do so for athletic competitions such as EOC Smurfing and Priority Target.
Beginning in the south of the continent, a traveler will come across the the Sandy Beaches. These beaches are known for being difficult to climb, but easy to stay on once at the top. Many Cabalites frequent these beaches, and will entertain themselves by throwing things at those trying to climb the embankments.
North of the Sandy Beaches is the Great HKTS Plain, where a large portion of Cabalites make their home. Residents of the Plain are among the most diverse and the most numerous on the continent. Many Cabalites from other regions will travel to the Great HKTS Plain regularly to mingle with others from all over the land.
The Hub of the HKTS plain is the Tentrik Defense Militia, a network of industrial cities situated in the south and center of the Plain. Immigrants to the Cabal often become citizens of these cities. The traditional greeting of this location is "Crash and Burn", a saying that embodies the grit and fighting spirit of the residents.
To the North and East of the Great HKTS Plain is a city known as Dangerous Penguin Science. This city was once known as Vanguard, and served as the capitol for the vR empire that used to span much of what is now the HKTS plain. Travelers to the area may come across the elite group of axe wielding warriors that hails from this region, and for whom a large canyon is named.
Back to the West lies the Moral High Ground. This monolithic plateau is the traditional location of the sacred Cabalite ritual called the "Try Hard Cups". Legend has it that there is a vast crypt beneath the High Ground where thousands of CraftyDus smurfs slumber, waiting to hear their master's call.
In the center of the continent lies the nation known as The Hawken Collective. This nation has a rich tradition of art and spirituality under a religion known as "just chill, man". Newcomers to The Hawken Collective can expect to be encouraged to sing mechsmas songs and receive invites to various gatherings.
North of the Hawken collective lies Mount Omnilympus and the Temple of Mustang. Mount Omnilympus is considered sacred by many Cabalites, and the few who have been allowed to ascend and reside there are treated with a great respect (so long as they don't make asses of themselves). The Temple of the Mustang, while commonly believed to be a place for those who aspire to climb the great peak, is related to Mount Omnilympus mostly by proximity and by High Priest M1lkshake, who used to live on the Mount but doesn't anymore for some reason.
The western border of THC is shared with The Pubstar Woods. The woods are so named for the abundance of Pubs that draw hunters from all around. In these woods you may find all manner of exotic Pubs such as the Spacebar Hero, the One Trick Pony Salt, the Overconfident Flak Scout, and the Non-Ironic Rocketeer Player.
For all of recorded history of the High Tier Cabal, The Berling Wall has stood to the west of the Pubstar woods. Its purpose is unclear, but it is said that by walking the length of it on the west side, your eyes will be OPENED.
In the northwest is the Hawkenscrim peninsula. It is inhabited by a primitive tribe that are largely friendly, but are insular and easily startled by loud noises. They make use of an esoteric conversation tradition in which the shape of their peninsula and it's archipelago are discussed at length. Inhabitants of other regions will often vacation to the Peninsula to enjoy its relatively quiet and lenient governance.
