Kasyat (Kasyati) is one of the Shards of The Integrum. It is the home realm of the Template:Category Azj races.

History

Like all Shards of The Integrum, Kasyat's history begins during The Shattering at the end of the Gilded Age, when the Shards were created. During the Gilded Age, Kasyat and the other Shards did not exist, as there was only a single Mortal Realm. Prior to the Gilded Age, The Integrum did not exist, as it was constructed during the First Age.
