The following is a short story that was written by a New World Computing employee and published on the now-defunct fansite "The Nether Gods".
<div style="font-style: italic;">"Thank you, [[Christian]]. My, that '''is''' quite a number of questions, and all good ones [[Marcus Finch|I]] might add. Let me try to answer some of them, though my creature knowledge is a bit rusty - I leave that to [[Xanthor]], he does take after his uncle [[Agar]] so.
Let's start with some geography. Again, this is not my specialty, but I will give it a go. From the [[Erathia]]n coast, a safe journey to Castle Ironfist in [[Enroth (nation)|Enroth]] lasts approximately eight weeks. The travel time can be cut to six weeks, but the more direct route takes you dangerously close to the southern shores of [[Regna]], where pirates lurk along the shipping lanes, disrupting most traffic. [[Regna]] lies to the northwest of [[Erathia]], and [[Enroth (continent)|Enroth]] to the west of [[Regna]].
The [[Dungeon]] [[Overlord]]s rule the eastern shores of the [[Erathia]]n continent, as well as the [[Nighon]] islands off the coast. It is a broken land, but riddled with caves and underground passages - a perfect space for the dwellings of the eyeless troglodytes and other creatures of the dark. As for a [[Temple of Baa|Cult of Baa]], I'm afraid I've never heard of it. Perhaps they are sheepherders?
The [[Stronghold]] nation of [[Krewlod]] lies along the western coast of [[Erathia]], in the foothills between the [[Bracada Highlands]] (home of the [[Wizard]]s) and the [[Tatalia]]n Lowlands (where Xanthor and I traveled several weeks ago). They have always remained neutral in the affairs of [[Erathia]].
Finally, you asked about the [[Temple of the Sun|Temples of the Sun]] and the [[Temple of the Moon|Moon]]. While there were a few temples of these religions, most were destroyed when the two went to war, leaving only remnants of each. Most stay in their homeland of [[Karigor]], and are rarely seen here in [[Erathia]].
Well, that should be enough for today. I will gather more questions and answer them tomorrow."</div>

Antagarich is sometimes spelled "Antagrich" in official documents such as the {{sod}} manual, notably in the description of the [[Pixie and Sprite|Pixies and Sprites]], [[Halfling]]s, [[Rogue]]s, and [[Troll]]s. Greg Fulton coined the name "Antagarich" as a portmanteau of "'''antag'''onism" and "'''rich'''", connected with an 'a' to make pronunciation easier. A continent rich in antagonism...
