==Edheltol==
Was called the "Isle of the Elves", with the name Edheltol. It is known to have an Elven Wood.
==History==
During Rollplay: Legacy the island was visited in Episode 17 where a population of Giant and Ogres had captured elves from Justar's Bay.
: When the Bannerless Army arrived at the start of what would become known as the Vale War, a cleric with an escort of ogres and giants arrived to conquer the island and retake the mighty fortress. After a day of looking around and finding nothing they left, never to be seen from again. There was much to do about the Vale War on the rest of Ferrodia but Aknara was left in peace. Whereas once the role of the defenders of Aknara was to protect the Floating Fortress of Ferris so that it would only be used by the great Arc Mage, now the role of the defenders is to make sure the secrets of the past stay buried by those who would bring harm to this world.
Eventually Voraci Empire claimed all the human territory of the island, but have the elven woods under siege. With the siege no elf is able to enter or leave the woods. The elves have consolidated into a smaller area as the invasion began.
==Aknara==
Aknara Island is oval in shape. Four by Nine Miles. Upon it is a very large hill crests along the back of the island that locals call a mountain. The grains used on the island are mostly corn based. Population 12,000. 90% Human; 10% Half-Elves.
This village has guarded the secrets Ferris's Floating Fortress for over 3000 years. In older ages Aknara was the captital of the island, and the leader was a king. Now it is a village with a Mayor. 12 Wardens.
: Once upon a time... a long long time ago the island of Aknara was the site of the greatest fortress in all the world. The mighty floating fortress of the Ferrin Empire. Legend has it that the great Arc Mage himself built this Fortress and used it to define the breadth and reach of his control. When finally satisfied with the extent of his domain, Ferris parked his Fortress until the need for it arose once again.
: The village was established by decree of the great wizard to guard the entrance to this great Fortress, and has done so for three millennia. In that time much has happened and much has been lost. The secrets of the Fortress were handed down from Commander to Commander in an oral tradition designed to prevent the theft of the fortress's secrets and the misuse of the Fortress. Long after the great Mage vanished and his Empire crumbled, Aknara kept its secrets, guarded the mighty keep and ritually passed down this eternal responsibility through the generations.
: At the start of the last age, when the skies erupted and the seas invaded the lands, the last great Commander was swept out into the lake and never seen from again. The line of secrets was broken, and the land beyond the lake were sown with salts, famine, war, and strife. As it erupted across Ferrodia, Aknara was not spared this difficult time. Yet the responsibilities to the world were not forgotten. Centuries came and went, commanders turned into overseers, Kings became Mayors, valorant became wardens and arc mages became became armatores. The ruins of the fortress on Aknara stud the land and remind the peaceful villagers of a time long ago when this small island was the center of all power in the world.
: These days the roles and positions are still held in esteem but it has been a thousand years since any significant event has occurred. Wizards, Clerics and adventurer seekers still come to Aknara in hopes of unlocking secrets of the past. An attitude of "welcome but watch" has helped curtail these would be power seekers.'
