Naya is one of five Shards of Alara. It is primarily green-aligned, with red and white as secondary colors.
The world of Naya
As a tropical jungle-plane peopled with perfect specimens of the human, elf, and leonin races, Naya seems like a paradise. But don't let its exuberant cultures fool you; Naya tremors with peril. Behemoths taller than buildings lumber through Naya's rainforests, crushing acres of vegetation—or civilization—casually underfoot. Yet somehow, Naya's sentient races revere these gargantuans, relegating them to the pinnacle of their religious beliefs and ascribing to them a sacred ineffability. The elves, nacatl and the humans of Naya live life with passion like no other shard. Surrounded by towering trees and beasts, the humans have no fear of taunting these beasts and playing bait with them to lead them away from a settlement they've carved out among the roots. They are not oblivious to danger but rather thrive on the thrill of it. The young elves race across the vines and branches high in the canopy, flitting between huts and lovers trysts. Mayael the Anima leads the druids in observing and placating the mighty beasts, especially the ancient sleeping destroyer of worlds, progenitus. Even the nacatl of the mountain become more feral each day. Their historically dominant civlization has all but completely collasped, and they have begun to conflict with the elves as they expand their hunting grounds. Why they abandoned their sacred coil is a suspicious story unknown.
