Quy - a prehuman civilisation which seem to have been active even before Atlantis and Valusia, including the “seven cities” mentioned in The Black Book of the Skull . Once it covered the whole continent of America, but when the Old Ones and their servants retreated the humans who had moved into the area divided into two groups: those who maintained Quy in the south, influenced by the gods and worshipping the Old Ones; and those who established the civilisation of Cakatomia, in North America. Quy was created by Crispin Burnham.
