Thunder Island
The wind and waves fashioned the remains of this extinct volcano into a series of arches and shoals. As water and air moves through these, they set up a loud humming that builds until it bursts with a cacophony of sound. The waters around Thunder Island are treacherous with many subtly-hidden currents, jagged rocks just below the tide, and underwater passages that suck at passing ships. A rare few Northlanders visit the island, for the arching cliffs are home to nesting seabirds, some of which are valued for their eggs and plumage.
