Ernath Alus
The ancestral home of the merfolk, located in an undersea cavern beneath Pangea. It is extremely hard to get to without knowing how, keeping its inhabitants safe from poachers, but also leaving them trapped there. It is the lost ancestral home of the elves that sank during the Forgotten Age. It is under the protection of Pirate Lord Elizabeth Rochelieu, whose agents are able to access it rather easily due to undead not needing to breathe. She keeps them in line by threatening them with being exposed to the NWTC HQ above.

This used to be the ancestral home of the elves, the entire mountain got flipped upside down in the Forgotten Age.Geography
Situated at the underwater base of the sea mountain that forms Pangea. There is a large hollow space in the centre of the mountain, accessible only through a series of twisting and turning caves that could leave unsuspecting exploerers wandering for weeks.
Upon entering the main cavern, a traveler would see the inner mountain filled with what would appear to be a dense coral reef, dimly lit by all manner of bioluminessent seaweed and other glowing life. Fish from all seas and biomes can be found swimming here, including some legendary sea creatures not seen in an age. Upon closer inspection, this coral reef is actually a city, with the various species of coral and sea anemone being bent and twisted to form housing for the inhabitants.
At the top of the loosely teardrop shaped cavern is what whout appear to be a large conical stalctite covered in yet more coral and emitting a pale yellow glow stronger than any other in the cave. Peering through the coral would reveal this structure to be infact the remains of a once beautiful stone palace, hanging upside down from the cave roof. This is Seafoam Palace, home of the king of the merfolk, Oceanus.
