The Otherworld islands and lands of the Celtic and Arthurian traditions: Avalon, Tir na nOg, Annwn, Mag Mell and Camelot. A realm belongs here when its cited article describes an Otherworld or a legendary land of Celtic or Arthurian story. It excludes Norse worlds. Examples in the atlas include Avalon, Tir na nOg, Annwn, Mag Mell and Camelot. The Otherworld and the Arthurian lands merge in the medieval sources, so Avalon and Camelot are admitted with the older island paradises.
