Seven Ruins Island

Seven Ruins Island was located in the Rivan Sea just off the southern coastline of the continent of Genabackis - probably to the west of Galatan Island. Seven Ruins, itself, had a single deep-water harbour. From this harbour, a switchback trail climbed up the steep shore cliffs to their top where a collection of huts and shacks could be found.Map, "South Genabackis and environs" from Orb Sceptre ThroneDeadhouse Landing, Chapter 7, US TPB p.142/145 
Beyond this settlement rose the island heights where the ruins which gave the island its name were located. According to legend, these ruins were what remained of a fortress stronghold on the island that had been the headquarters of an ancient warlord who had laid waste to all of South Genabackis centuries in the past. This history and these ruins were probably the reason that Seven Ruins Island was widely considered to be the second most haunted island in the area.

The existence of Seven Ruins Island's naturally sheltered harbour was the only reason that anyone ever visited the island. To accommodate vessels, piers had been constructed in the deep-blue waters of the harbour. Vessels came to Seven Ruins to lay over for repairs and/or to replenish supplies. Amongst the huts and shacks on the island cliffs, there was at least one tavern, the "Full Sail", belonging to the innkeeper, Funal. Normally the only visitors to Seven Ruins were crew or passengers off of local corsair vessels, pirate ships, and the like. It was extremely unusual for strangers to appear on the island, causing a great deal of stir and interest when they did.Deadhouse Landing, Chapter 7, US TPB p.142-145
