Oceania
If Havila was a diamond and Arborea was an emerald, then Oceania was a sapphire.
80% of the surface was covered in water. Unbroken expanses of water stretched from Polar Ice cap to polar ice cap. The largest land mass was roughly the size of Australia. Huge chains of Islands thrust up from shallow seas. Fishing is the main industry of Oceania.
Fleets move from one fishing and crabbing ground to another, avoid the massive cyclonic storms that plague the winter months, but the expansive oceans gives it a milder climate than Aetheria. Ice Bowls are the greatest threat; these pocket of super-cooled water droplets float like a bowl on the ocean surface and can coat the decks of a ship with several inches of ice per minute. 90% of all seafood for the Aetheria system and the colonies comes from Oceania. Before the end of the Final War against the Shadows less than 500 called the world home year around. Afterwards the population grew to several thousand.

Geography
80% of the surface was covered in water. Unbroken expanses of water stretched from Polar Ice cap to polar ice cap. The largest land mass was roughly the size of Australia. Huge chains of Islands thrust up from shallow seas. Fishing is the main industry of Oceania.
Ecosystem
Aetheria’s almost twin, is a mostly water-covered world. The fifth world is one of storms and raging seas, with only fifteen percent of the surface offering dry land.
Localized Phenomena
In the far south there are severe storms and a weather phenomenon called Ice Bowls.
Ice Bowls are the greatest threat to the Oceanic Fishing fleet; these pocket of super-cooled water droplets float like a bowl on the ocean surface and can coat the decks of a ship with several inches of ice per minute. Thermal decking is not always enough to overcome the ice buildup and so sailing into the southern seas is forbidden during the winter months.
Fauna & Flora
The most unique thing about Oceania is the Southern Star Archipelago. The plants grow faster, and medicinals are stronger from this group of island. Then there is the exotically colored wood. The mineralized wood grows in every color of the rainbow. The colors are bonded to the hardwood grain and after 250 years of study they still don't know how it works.
