Shir
One of the Utari Islands. It is a volcanic island with a small permanent population of Utari, who are known for trading high quality furs. the island was occupied briefly by the Empire of Wamato, but they fled the island in the aftermath of a volcanic eruption about 22 years ago, and both sides believe that the Kamuy of the island used the eruption to drive the Yanjin away. The earthquake that accompanied the eruption also uncovered an ancient buried city, believed to be of Tugarin origin (or a related/predecessor of the Tugarin).

Is there anything remarkable about Shir, even if it is unhabitated? The name kinda drew me in..
Sit down, my friend, and let me tell you of Aran'sha . A world where the sands shift and the stars sing, where the wind carries secrets and the twin moons keep silent vigil over it all.
I’ve added some notes off the top of my head to this stub, so yes! There are some interesting ideas in there.
