Valyria is just southeast of the Free Cities, on the southern coast of Essos. It is between the Free cities and Slaver's Bay.
But the Peninsula that used to be Valyria (think of something similar to Italy jutting out from the southern part of Europe), experienced a cataclysmic volcanic event 400 years before the present, and as a result most of it was submerged below the sea. The parts that remain are now islands just south of the continent of Essos.

Huh. I always pictured them as being much closer together.

I think the name is very fitting, and hints at an ancient "First Language" that named all continents

"Sothoryos" does sound kinda cool, I'll admit.

Essos is the "scientific" name for the Eastern Continent...
