Many people say the Alorians are too absent minded and chaotic to form a city, much less an empire, and those people are mostly right.
Alorians build their towns ontop of clouds harded by magic (known as cloudstuff) to support large amounts of weight. These towns constantly flout around from location to location. When two Alorian towns meet they would use their combined magic to connect the towns seperate cloudstuff together to form an even larger town, after many years three major cities came into existence and formed the Alorian cloud empire.
Each city uses powerful illusion magic to appear from the outside as a large nimbus cloud, this is to protect each city from invaders. under the cloud is an amazing city of shinning gold buildings and towers.
The major populous of Ra'ana is alorians, however each city has a sizable minority of humans, gnomes and other amael races. Most people are there by invitation from major figures in the alorian goverments. The Alorians keep the ever changing location of each city a secret from outsiders to protect themselves from attack, very few people are ever made aware of their location. every Alorian has the capibilty of tracking where each city is by instict (intuitive direction check DC15, Alorians only).
Skyborn are a welcome group to these cities and are often treated as honored guests, even those who come upon the cities by accedent.
Each city moves by its own accord and rarely come within traveling distance of each other. To keep in contact each city has an Azure Gate to keep the cities connected.
The King of Ra'ana is Mor Malad Ra'ana
Mor Malad Ra'ana who Decends from the first man to bring together the Empire years ago (Malad Ra'ana translates from Alorian: "King Of Ra'ana") Mor, unlike most Alorians does not share the free spirited ways of most Alorians and beleives that the race is slowing dying out. Mor States that traveling Alorians as well as other Skyborn are helping to destroy the Alorians and their ways.
Mor is a selfish man who rose to the throne soley because he was the only heir in line.
Despite his short coming he rules Ra'ana with a gentle hand but holds the secrecy of the Alorian Empire as his highest priority.
Even though he is the King of Ra'ana many people clam that the lord of all Alorians is Mayviolet the most famous Alorian Bard in the world who many other Alorians clam as Lord because she holds the Spirit of the Skyborn in the hearts of all Alorians. Mor dislikes her to no end and has offically banned her from ever re-entering the empire, so far she has yet to challenge this.
