Inage Island (IN ahj)
the Twilight Court
On the few maps that show Inage Island, it appears as little more than a small island at the western tip of the Enisle Archipelago, of the west coast of the Western Reach of Ethae. It is, at most, twenty-five miles across as its longest. At the island heart rise Agorrun, an active volcano. The seas surrounding the island will often has churning magma break through the ocean floor, sending steam and smoke billowing up, surrounding the island in a misty haze.
The interior of the island, growing on the slopes of Agorrun, is a thick forest. The forest is a Feywilds, heavily infused with every aspect of the Anon (Magic). The entire island is blanketed in a quiet elven song, as if the air itself sings. As one crosses the reefs surrounding Inage, the sky turns a pristine blue, the seas calm, the air sweet feeling the lungs with life. Traveling even a few feet beyond the crystalline beaches into the forest, the world becomes and eternal twilight, the sun hidden by the canopy above. The densest interior of the forest is lit by the glowing petals of Claratis Vines hanging among the branches, and Altheim Tree that are grown along paths. Traveling deeper into Enisle, it becomes clear that the twenty-five miles length of the island does not apply within the forest. A wanderer in the forest of Enisle can travel a hundred miles in a straight line and never reach the far shore. They could climb a nearby tree into the canopy of leaves and never find their way out to the sunlight above. A wanderer will be lost forever in Enisle without a guide. Lucky for them, fruit grows abundant everywhere, springs of fresh water sit in cool groves, and no predators lurk to pounce on a resting traveler. For the natives, the forests are easily navigable. The Elf and Fairy of Inage can see the magical conduits through the forest and know the paths to take. They can spend their days wandering the endless forest or cross the island from side to side in an instant if they so need.
