Elysia is a fictional location in the Cthulhu mythos. It is the legendary homeland of the Elder Gods.
Elysia exists in an alternate dimension, and is where all the Elder Gods dwell in peaceful coexistence. It is infinitely vast and may not be entered without the approval of the Elder Gods themselves. Reaching Elysia is possible yet extremely difficult.
Gender: Female
Origin: Latin
Meaning: Blissful Sweetness
Pronunciation: Elysia is eh-loo-see-ah in Greek, the Y being said as in the French 'rue'. Most people don't know Greek, so the usual English take on it is 'eh-lee-see-ah'
Common mis-pronunciations: eh-lee-sha, eh-lisi-a, eh-lye-shuh, el-iz-ya, el-se-uh.
-sia is pronounced - 'see-a' not 'sha'
