The Blank

==The Blank==
A sacred space for the Water Tribes far from the influence of the Spirit World. 
Unmarked on most maps and difficult to find unless one knows where to look, the island known as the Blank is a popular pilgrimage destination for members of the Northern and Southern Water Tribes. Before the Spirit Portal opened in Republic City, the Blank was the furthest one could geographically get from the North and South Spirit Portals. As a result, spirit activity barely touches the island. Visitors and residents do not remain long at the Blank, but most spend their time seeking answers that only silence can bring. Weapons and fighting are forbidden. 
The villagers sometimes assist victims of shipwrecks, offering shelter and medical attention as well as a radio to call for help. 
Following the sinking of The Thing 2, Bao woke up on the beach, Yeong-Soo in a village hut, and Dan in a nearby cave. 
Features 
A beach surrounded by cliffs, some forested areas. A small village of huts housing only about twenty people at a time. A cave is just outside the village. 
Haa is uneasy on the island. The Mirror Scale reacts curiously, offering Dan a vision of Koh (the Face Stealer) when she looked inside. 
Time seemingly passes strangely for residents and visitors of the Blank. 
Notable Residents
Onat: A man from the Northern Water Tribe. Silver-haired. There's a couple of crags in the folds of his skin. He's fit, but exposed to the elements he's aged somewhat. His silver hair is close-cropped along with his beard. He has piercing blue eyes. He's dressed in a very simple outfit, almost like drapery just relaxed around his shoulders. Enough to let it flow down the rest of his body. His toes are immaculate, as if he's recently had a pedicure. Short, stands about 5 feet. He lives in the cave just outside the village and rescued Dan after The Thing 2 sank. 
He tells Dan that he travelled to the Blank two months ago seeking answers in "Silence" (the silence of a place far from the Spirit World).
Sandia: An elderly woman who lives in one of the village huts. She took in Yeong-Soo after the shipwreck. While in her home, he senses that "the person in this cabin has less than a week to live". 
Vaka: An amazingly attractive man with black hair and gold weaves throughout. Sharp nose. Long fingers covered in rings with various stones. He wears a green top along with the blue pants that one would expect from someone from the Water Tribes. But the green vest is reminiscent of the Earth Kingdom. 
Vaka is one of the primary healers of the village who saw to Nao's care after the shipwreck.
