The Kilikas Sea is a sea surrounded by the Kilikas Basin and is pass-through for waters from the Levantine Ocean to the Coscivian Sea, and then onto the Sea of Odoneru. The sea is bound by the Arctic in the north and Levantia in the south. The northern 40% of the sea freezes over from January to March. This much colder water, moving southward, conflicting with the warmer winds moving up the western Levantine coast from the equator in the southern Sea of Odoneru have caused a phenomenon known as the Kilikas Storm Belt, which encompasses the southwestern quadrant of the sea, particularly in the transitional waters of the Kilikas into the Coscivian Sea.

The Kilikas Sea has an average depth of 1,054 m (3,458 ft) and the deepest recorded point is 6,357 m (20,856 ft) about 650 nm due east of Wintergen, known as the Phistual Trench. Because of the Kilikas Storm Belt, the sea has only become an important route for merchants and travelers of in the last few centuries, following the development of safer maritime modes of transport. This has led to the development of slightly isolated cultures, like the Bergendii who otherwise would have been part of a larger Latinic civilization. The history of the Kilikas region is crucial to understanding the origins and development of Kiravia, and the origins of globalization.

The countries with coastlines on the Kilikas Sea are Burgundie, Kiravia, Fiannria.
