## Mainland

The mainland of this island has a beaten, overgrown path that winds through a mass of forests and rivers. Before the arrival of Stella, aka The Empress, the forest may have been much more well kept but after her impromptu leadership, it had become weedgrown and much more wild. A tall mountain stretches up close to the middle of the island, and at one part stands the statue of the island's ruler. Alveros, his hands cupped and a waterfall spilling from it. While difficult to see, the ruins of Alveros' temple also reside on the mountain. Past this is a clump of buildings, one of which being the library of the ruler, and with a beautiful area of water in the middle. There also stands a smallish, palace-like structure made from marble/stone that is slightly in disrepair. On the other side of the island stands the main town of its people.

## Notable Locations

### Cove Prison

On Desire Island, the main crew first wake up in a large cove on the outskirts of the mainland. The cove is dark, with multiple small cells for prisoners and a winding river that stretches from one side of the cove out to the other. The small piece of land this cove is situated on is connected to a wooden bridge that attaches it to the main isle of Desire Island.

### Alveros' Sanctuary

The entry to what used to be the king's temple is hidden behind a waterfall and through a narrow hole in a rock wall. Past that lies a stone wall with Celestial writing carved in, the door of the wall only opening to those who can comprehend and speak the writing. Further inside were raised broken staircases and above that is a room filled with vegetation. Moss, grass, and other plants grow along the floor and walls, and at the other side of the room is a Hobbit door. Underneath the floor though is a trap of spikes, and sitting on the ceiling is Gurdy, a plant monster who is soon learned to be docile. In the next chamber is a room with similar vegetation, except it is also filled with flowers. A drawing of one person standing up and the other kneeling down is chalked into the wall, and a crystal clear pool lays to the middle. The room is lit up by tall sunflowers that give it a golden glow. At the deep bottom of the pond, there is a taped photo of two humanoids in the same pose as the drawing on the wall, a kneeling masculine figure with broad shoulders and a smaller feminine figure standing up. The back of it has the writing that says "Perform an act of love!". Finally, past this chamber is the third and final room, made of marble stone and sandstone with remnants of gold, chalices, and treasures littering the floor, overgrown with vines. These vines are also covering the walls, and at the back wall sits an open coffin, attached to the wall of overgrowth, with the mummified skeleton of Alveros, covered in jewelry and holding the magic compass once owned by Niklaus Hendrix.
