The Nameless

Geography

The Nameless Islands are a group of islands located south-east of the big continent of Syrca Mountd'or, north of the Doreii Wilds and west of an even smaller group of islands in the Neraaren ocean.
The islands have been visited once by explorers looking to add to the map but since their return and report of overall negative feeling in the air, creatures that only come out at night and screaming during any hour of the day - one without a source or direction - they have been deemed dangerous and nobody wants to claim them as their territory. After attempts over and over again to find out more of the land it was determined the eleven spots of land are either mainly flat and covered in forest or flat and completely devoid of life - being just a small rocky chunk of land in the ocean.

Fauna & Flora

If someone arrives on any of those isles during the day they'd think that there is no life there - you cannot hear bird song, animal chittering or any kind of insects buzzing around. And in the midst of all that unnerving silence - every once in a while - they'd hear blood curdling screams - coming from nowhere and everywhere at the same time. 
Those screams are actually a specific kind of tree, that lives on these islands only, waving its branches around as both hunting tactic and attracting a mate that would scream back in a certain pitch if interested. There hasn't been many brave souls attempting to stay on the Nameless and study those peculiar trees so not much is known about them aside from being identified as the source of the terrifying soundscape. 
Any actual animals that live on the isles come out at night, are mainly predatory and are not afraid to try a new item on the menu - as proven by the very first expedition in that direction that left with a party of eleven and returned with five.
