• The elven island Conder Isle
• The flat island of Darnach Islet, which can be seen from the closes connection between the main land and the island.

Location

Even though it is a very large continent most of it has a Mediterranean climate. This is caused by the perpetual stream that surrounds the continent clockwise. Though the north does feel a bit colder than the south.

Sailing to the two larger islands to the main land is a difficult task. Because the stream drifts everyone clockwise for hundreds of kilometres. Therefore most maritime commerce travels clockwise around the continent embarking on a journey at least a year long if not longer.

History

TODO Cataclysm

Expeditions outside

Some brave souls started expeditions leading outside of the known worlds, to find other continents or islands to build new settlements or find trading partners, but no one has ever returned. Most sought after are the Bloodlands, which may orcish myths are praising for its excess of resources.
