    Here's how I think they're pronounced.

    Ragni: RANG-nee (Scandinavian pronunciation)
    Detlas: DET-lehs
    Nemract: NEM-rackt
    Almuj: AL-möj or AL-möy
    Nesaak: NESS-ack
    Lusuco: lö-SOO-co
    Troms: TROHMS ok this one's too obvious
    Dernel Jungle: der-NELL Jungle (I say it that way so it isn't like Dernal; referring to Dern itself)
    Wynn: WIN it is not winecraft
    Gavel: GAV-uhl
    Llevigar: HLEV-ih-gar (welsh double-L)
    Olux: OH-lucks or OH-löcks
    Gelibord: Gell-i-bored
    Cinfras: SIN-fruhs
    CotL: COT-uhl
    Thesead: THEE-see-ahd
    Eltom: EL-töm or EL-tome
    Rodoroc: RODE-ore-ock
    Maex: MAY-ecks
    Ahmsord: ÄMS-hörd
    Lutho: LOOTH-oh
    Corkus: CORCK-uhs
    Avos/Avo: AY-voes/AY-voe
    Selchar: SELL-char
    Zhight Island: TZITE Island (German pronunciation)
    Nodguj/Dujgon: NOD-göy/DÖY-gun

    I hope I pronounce them right :/
    Also, look up the Swedish Ö sound and Ä sound before regarding anything about the pronunciations of the cities where I have used those characters.

    Oops I forgot the horse towns.

    Ternaves: I know most people say TERN-aves but I think TERN-ah-vees sounds better
    Bucie: BYOO-see

    Since I'm not a native English speaker myself, I'd appreciate if someone could add their bit here as well, but I will try, as I have some guesses about some of the pronunciations.

    Ragni - Rag (as in rug) ni (as in nymph)
    Detlas - Det (as in detonate) las (as in lass)
    Nemract - Same as the OP
    Almuj - Pretty much the same as the OP
    Nesaak - Nes (as in happiness) aak (as in mach, but the double "a" is kinda long as if there are actually two As)
    Lusuco - Lu (as in Luger (the German pistol)) su (as in suit) co (as in cone)
    Troms - Same as the OP
    Dernel Jungle - Same as the OP
    Wynn - Same as the OP
    Gavel - Ga (as in gallop) vel (as in lovely)
    Llevigar - Ll (as in let (I just say the double L as regular L)) evi (as in revision) gar (as in garrison)
    Olux - O (as in oh) lux (as in influx)
    Gelibord - Geli (as in Angelica) bord (as in board) - this one sounds really weird to me, but I have no other idea
    Cinfras - Cin (as in sin) fras (as in infrastructure)
    CotL - I either spell it out or say the whole name
    Thesead - The (as in team) sead (as in seed)
    Eltom - I pronounce it the same as Elton, but I replace N with M
    Rodoroc - Ro (as in road) do (as in door) roc (as in rock)
    Maex - Ma (as in mother) ex (same as the OP - ecks)
    Ahmsord - Ahm (I say Ahm, but H is silent) sord (I say sort, but I add D instead of T at the end)
    Lutho - Lut (as in flute) ho (H is silent and I basically just finish with O)
    Corkus - Cork (as in cork (lol)) us (as in acoustic)
    Avos - A (A as it is spelled) vos (as in was)
    Avo -A (A as it is spelled) vo (as in was but without the S)
    Selchar - Sel (Same as the OP) char (as in charcoal)
    Zhight Island - Almost the same as the OP - ZITE Island
    Nodguj/Dujgon - No idea
    Ternaves - No idea (I just say it as it would be pronounced in Czech and that's definitely wrong, so...)
    Bucie - No idea
