As has been noted, Sarlona is a large continent with considerable environmental diversity. Humans didn't arrive in a single wave; The people of Valenar and southeastern Cyre have Khunan roots (an arid desert land), the Demon Wastes/Shadow Marches are drawn from Ohr Kaluun; and the Five Nations are largely split between Dor Maleer & Rhiavaar (rocky and cold region; these people have deep roots in Lhazaar and Karrnath) and Corvagura and Pyrine (fertile jungle and plains, with stronger roots in Aundair and Breland). And of course, all of these have mingled over the course of thousands of years; while Valenar is the only bastion of Khunan culture, Khunan settlers certainly left their roots behind to move deeper into the Five Nations, just as Ohr Kaluunan stock from the Shadow Marches was folded into Breland. You also have humans from the Seren Islands, which were seeded by the dragons long before humanity came to Khorvaire; I can't find the image, but certainly the mini of the Seren champion has dark skin. So essentially, the principle is that Khorvaire's a melting pot and you can find whatever you're looking for somewhere.</blockquote>
