Welcome to the fabulous and mysterious Orient! On behalf of the citizens of the Lands of
the East, we would like to welcome you to our community! We have prepared a list of fun and
helpful links to get you started on your journey throughout the Orient, as well as the rest
of Ancient Worlds!
Once you are settled into your home, please stop at The Floating
Garden Social Center and leave a post at the Introductions
and Welcomes topic telling us a little about yourself. Don't be shy! There may already
be a welcome post there waiting for you! Refreshment and company can be found at the Kublai
Khantina. Enjoy a drink and some informal roleplay! Share your knowledge by joining in
the general history discussions at the Imperial
Court...or start one of your own. Try your hand at a little Haiku poetry or test yourself on Oriental
Trivia. You can also discuss or post reviews of your favorite films with an Asian flair
in the Khannes Film Festival
Groups are an important way to interact here at Ancient Worlds. You can discuss your
favorite topics of interest with likeminded individuals in one of our Orient Groups. There are
topics ranging from ancient art to ancient Oriental history, and everything in between!
