Finndal glacial islands
Small islands to the north of Finndal, covered in large amount of glacial ice. Where the ice coverage is thin enough, it looks like it glows due to the large amount of spirit crystal that is under the ground.
Geography
Made up of mostly flat glacial plains and snowfields, which lie on small glacial islands. These islands are close enough together to allow traversal across the ice the others. These islands are interspersed with the rocky hills that litters most of Finndar's coastline. There is very little unfrozen freshwater, instead the land that is not covered in glacial ice has permafrost lakes and rivers.
The ground is mostly frozen and very little of it is arable, making the people who live there subsists mostly on fishing on the coast.
Localized Phenomena
The ground beneath the northern glaciers of Finndar is rich in spirit crystal, making the ground beneath the thinner sheets of ice glow eerie blues, purples, and greens.
This phenomena has been slowly decreasing due to the intense spirit crystal mining that has been taking place in the region.
Due to the extreme north of these islands, a period of time from 4 weeks to 2 months the islands are in a constant night where the sun does not rise. This night makes up the longest of the 3 seasons of the Glacial islands.
Natural Resources
Huge glaciers of ice don't hold many natural recourses, and those it does hold can only support a few people living a subsistance lifestyle, the one exception of this is @sp, a raw resource capable of storing and using a large amount of spirit. This crystal is heavily mined throughout the region, supplying the rest of Lundas with the precious resource.
