List of The Belgariad locations


This is a list of The Belgariad locations including natural features, such as deserts and islands, as well as man-made features, such as roads and cities.

Perivor is an island district located in the Dalasian Protectorates, lying in the Eastern Sea to the southwest of the eastern continent and east from the Turim Reef. Originally occupied by Dals, it was discovered by Mimbrates some centuries ago when their ship wrecked there. The Dals took on some of the feudal societal elements of Mimbrates, but serfdom was abolished, possibly because of their mixed heritage.

Melcena may mean several things. It may refer to the whole of the Melcene Empire, the largest island in the Melcene Islands archipelago, or the capital city of the empire which is on that island. Melcena is on the east coast of the eastern continent. People from Melcena are known as Melcenes and are, in general, very urbane and cultured, and not given much to religious concerns. Melcena is one of the two principal players in a confederation that forms the current Mallorean Empire. One of Aldur's disciples, Belmakor, was a Melcene. He was described as an urbane, civilised man, who argued extensively over philosophy with Beldin, before committing suicide with sorcery. Melcena is the only place Silk uses his title Prince Kheldar.

Kell is a city located near and on the mountain of the same name in the fictional universe of David Eddings' Belgariad. This mountain is reputed to be the highest in its world. It lies in the province of Likandia, a protectorate of the Mallorean Empire located on the eastern continent. Kell is the holy and capital city of the society known as Dalasia, and is where the society's seers, necromancers, and diviners dwell. It is divided into several smaller communities according to the specialities of the people. Kell is permeated by a hive mind or noosphere that contains the memories of every Dal that has ever lived and the thoughts of all Dals living, providing constant communication, allowing immense feats of magic, and possibly imposing harmony on the whole ethnicity. This continuum emits a constant vibration audible only to natives and to users of the Will and the Word, the chief magical discipline practiced in the story.
