Zaratan

Zaratan is a moving island in the oceans far to the south, which is in fact an enormous turtle.
==History==
Zaratan's origins are unknown, but it must be at least hundreds of years old as the old Corhyrian pirate Stefano Blacklips was aware of its existence. Scholars agree that there must once have been other such creatures like it, but there is no way easy way to tell if others remain. After Atanua created the Providence for Stefano, he sailed to Zaratan and there allowed the bottle to pull him inside (with his hoard of treasure).
==Description==
Zaratan's shell is the size of a small mountain, and is home to an interesting variety of plants that can survive both above and below the surface of the ocean. For sustenance it mainly seems to consume a species of purple seaweed that grows along the ocean floor. Seagulls tend to flock around Zaratan when he chooses to surface. Zaratan seems largely oblivious to the interests of smaller creatures, andi does not seem to be particularly communicative. 
==In the Campaign==
Vantis and Lannus travelled to Zaratan to find the Providence, after Owego interpreted a message from the stars to mean that Stefano's treasure could help in some way against the Lords of Dust.
==Divinations==
Lannus received the following response after asking the stars to guide him to the treasure of Stefano Blacklips:
"South of Shavarath, there you must go
Follow the lavender leaves below
Have patience and faith, let the garden grow
Wait for the secret island to show
Then seek the shade of a windswept tree
Beneath a tall cliff overlooking the sea
Cut through the sand to where stone bleeds
Though the wounded are wary, remember, they flee"
