as the southern mountains end, nothing can be seen other than the frigid polar sea, and the Antarctica archipelagos, which the Southern nation calls the barren ice plains, a land so ancient it is said to have existed far before the catastrophe, even existing before the old world flourished and fell, when the poles of the planet hadn't been reversed by the great calamity. Here, vicious 'Gigapengus' scavenge and fight each other for every little bit of food they can scrape up to survive the inhospitable land, hunting down smaller pengus and other critters on land, large fishes and invertebrates, and occasionally finding a bounty of giant filter feeding arthropods swarms, idly roaming in the icy waters, though they must be wary as some of these giants far exceed their own size and a few might not be such gentle plankton feeders, but opportunistic hunters.
