The Blue Isles are a set of four unique islands, each home to a different assortment of people and creaturs. There are rumors of other islands that are whispered fearfully about in the darkness of the streets, places that are home to unspeakable beasts. Upon the first island WinterCrest , One will find a few villages spread out onto the mountains. On its most northern mountain peak you can find a cozy inn called #WinterCrest*Inn. It appears large from the outside, But once you've stepped foot within its doors, It becomes small and cozy; Just the right place to relax , escape and get comfortable. The creatures found upon this one island are big and deadly.. yet do not dare tread beyond their domain and into that of the villages. Most large saber cats, and huge bears even some other unspeakable creatures leave in the depths of the wilds.. but mostly where few tread for they as those villagers of the island wish to remain untouched ..The God's have seen to that, seeking a peaceful isle there are a few wild wolves who guard the populated areas... Its said that it was elves who discovered the islands.. making their home among the ice and snow.. of the first naming it after their elder Varan Wintercrest ... After most of the elves of the village was slain by out law drows visiting the area humans arrived.. taking over the lands and naming the island for themselves leaving it known to all as Iclantia. Its known though that a few of the original elves from the first founding survived moving deeper into secret caverns and havens in the mountains.. some believe there is a green haven to be found among the mountains somewhere.. found in what had once been a volcano crater though few if any can ever find it Though thanks to the manager (FyreBrand) of the inn, there is some small reminder some small hope for elves of the island that one day they might be accepted among the humans. Who have little like of the first owners believing them up spurs.. Long years passed before they were finally accepted but only after the stories of their founding the islands was forgotten.. and everyone took the inn to simply be named for the wintery crest of the mountain it rests upon. Many shops line the docks a well known one for ladies is the "Moons Caress" Run by a man named Blood Thorn.. who named it after one of his favorite ships even if it was blown up strangely by some unknown attacker. The shop itself has been rebuilt and once again deals in mainly women's finery and trinkets though he can come across anything a woman desires Upon the second island one can find volcanic pools warmed by volcanic activity.. though all are well warned to watch out also for its small volcanos and geysers. There are a few known creatures to live upon this island, a few lizards and small dragons. Also some small birds who find the fruits of the island to their liking and a few fish in the lakes who've gotten use to the warmth. The birds are colorful and come in many diffrent sizes. Many of which appear like peacocks lost among a garden of flowery greens.. Though part of the island is unreachable and unworthy of man there is the other half which flourish in colors and fruits.. vines of delicious rare treats.. that half of the island is where many go to savor those treats and the warm supposedly healing waters of the hot springs. This island was named for its fiery birth .. in elven it is called but to the humans its called Tazrath. (The island of the flaming rocks) The third island Sylvian (The place of quiet slumber) is covered in trees and other wild flowers as well as animals. On this beautiful isle is one of the many shipping ports. A busy place for ships heading to and from the sea. Young Skye Reese manages the port, And likes to spend her spare time at the inn. A small mainly drinking tavern called DeWaters is found upon this island known for its lack of the better patrons, more lower class and trouble makers dwell with-in its walls..Yet as if knowing what awaits them outside the doors , or perhaps due to some truce little if any trouble every goes beyond its doors.. and most of the time even inside all is peaceful between those seeking a drink and a break from the hard lives they live. A favorite spot for the young though is also found upon the island abit farther into depths.. the rather large local library full of just about anything and everything one could want.. there is often a fresh shipment arriving for the library.. Most seeking peace go there.. or to the small simple church near by where anyone could find haven from whatever chases or ills them... Also along the dock one can find many a markets trading in the finery and strange foods of other realms.. The island is thought of as a warm jungle full of many wonders and things to see.. most animals live upon this island .. it being the safest of them all. The fourth island is an Island of mist, Like any of the other isles it's quite nice. Except for the mist that tends to take over from time to time. This isle is lost to most eyes, Expect for the few that have crashed onto its sandy banks in the midst of one of the sea God's rare storms. But on a clear day from high places eyes searching the open seas in the right spot may glimpse the island. Though this chance is indeed rare. An Island of mist makes up the fifth island known Mystivan or as the elves call it The island of Dragon's breath.. since the dragon is seen as a protector and the mist is said to protect the island from being seen in so it protects those living upon it. The island is whispered of being a legend and spoken of often. While in each of the other island dwells some of the more well bred families .. The island of the dragons breath is said to be the home of the Elders. Who are believed to be the oldest of the Gods.. and though no one knows exactly what they appear like its well known that from their line is bred the ruling family. The king rarely leaves his island.. but the rest of the family tends to pay visits to the other islands, to shop and simply visit. Its rumored that the sixth Island known as Wulfenite (The island of Eternal night ) Is one not even the Elders are allowed to trespass upon.. One of night and shadows.. Where creatures of nightmares and dreams dwell. Its whispered that an elder vampire took over the realm some odd years ago. No one knows what he looks like but perhaps the royals and their advisors.. and No one dares to trespass upon this island, besides a few foolish travelers or ship wrecked victims.. Only one has ever escaped whispering mad tales of a haunted island.. where creatures of bones guards the shores keeping people at bay.. He died soon after of his fears.. sure that the creatures would hunt him down until their secrets were at rest. Long ago a demoness arrived in the area taking up upon the island.. no one is sure but it is said that she and the vampire were wed before the gods.. his one show of respect to them.. from their union it is said was born a half vampire.. half demon.. strangely an innocent soul.. the Gods are surely behind it. The child sometimes is found drifting around the islands.. enjoying life and the light.. but for the few times she is allowed to leave the island of darkness.. for it is not always seen nor reachable.. only in the darkest of nights does it appear .. other wise it is lost to sight and to anyone. The only way to visit the island is by invitation of its king, or at the side of his advisor Lady Xyila. A brand new island joined the mass already created long ago just in the past year or so, It appearing .. and waiting empty until the right people to inhabit it.... Named simply Dragon's Haven .. . The island was named so for the growing hoard of dragons seeking a place to live in peace and safety, The was brought to life by the gods, For it simply appeared over night .. this roughly in the shape of a dragon is the home of Loregrant Castle where the new ruler of the island (by the Gods & King Grahams wishes) Lord Haldrin and family can be found.. it is said he has stepped into the role to aide the king of the blue isles where it comes to dragons.. when one comes to shore they are greeted by rich soft white sands Which soon gives way to lush green grass and trees.. a trail of cobble stones gives way to a large set of iron gates.. graced by the crest of the Loregrant family.. Behind it stands a tall white castle the torrents a pale powdery blue.. flags of the family crest fly high above the castle.. a lake is hidden behind the castle better known as Crystal lake. It seems to be fed from a small river which winds through the island's mountains .. where Haldrin's brother Blizzaran ( who was giving the place as Captain of the island guard) , his love Delilah and their family call their home ...among the highest cliff called Dragon's point.. the mountain built so only one can fly to reach the family's safe haven... Each of the islands hold a large stone doorway better known Infinity Gate or 'The everywhere doors' With a thought of where you choose to go, the portal's will carry you there. So long as there is a connecting portal on that world or realm and one has been there before.. Each portal seems to stand no more then a few miles from each major village or inn upon the islands.. Though there is either no gate upon three of the islands .. those three are said to be myth or off limits to all but those who dwell upon it (the shadow island, the mist island and the floating island) Those portals are magical blocked .. and only those of dark spirits may drift through the one of the dark island.. there hordes of dark beasts lay in way to prey upon those who've come uninvited and unwanted. Little is known of the creation of the islands, Other then a few whispers. It is said that a table of four elder gods created the lands upon a long dead moon of the land Erelon .. these elder gods brought forth all life upon the moon soon naming it Ch`aron (Shh aron) ... once the world was made.. they built the portals of whispering stones.. stones said to be made from the sands of each world a portal blesses.. and so they carry the stories of those worlds... Once this was done the table of four brought in to living each and every other god to rule under them.. through the portals they guided the elves who first took over the area. Though most of the rest of the world is water there are a few good sized countries .. each well blessed with life.. Myth says that the God of air created a island that hovers high in the air, Only the royal families are allowed to visit Skye Island where a pale blue dragon is said to sleep. Its protector named Zoick.. They came this world, So long ago,
