Alastea

Geography

The larger islands are all named. From north to south, they are:
An’taha
Rojekma
Dularenn
Jan’esha
Xuwenn


There is a sixth island not far from Dulanenn. It is not considered to be a part of Alastea and is, in fact, both forbidden and unnamed. It is not spoken of nor is it put on any of the maps in use by the people. There is a single map in which it is depicted and that was the first map made by dragon surveys long before the Vaen came to live there.

Fauna & Flora

The Vaen share the Alastean Islands with a small group of humans. They aren’t native to the islands and wouldn’t be there save for the fact that the two groups were fleeing from the Darkriders at the same time and the Vaen, fearing for the safety of their human friends, gave them on ships and sent them towards Alastea. Three ships of humans, their belongings, and livestock followed the Vaen ships to Alastea. The Vaen living there at the time welcomed their fellows with open arms, but greeted the humans with suspicion and distrust. It was only the Vaen returning from the mainland vouching for them that convinced the island Vaen to allow them to stay. They ceded the southernmost island of Xuwenn to the humans as no Vaen really wanted to live there. It was given to them to use as they please, provided that they obeyed the ancient laws handed down by Morshann and observed the Festivals.
To this day, Alastean humans dwell mostly on Xuwenn with small populations on Jan’esha and An’taha. There are no human settlements on Rojekma and Dulanenn, though there are groups of them living there.
