The Starpath Isles

The Starpath Isles are a scattered chain of volcanic and coral islands stretching across Marellum’s eastern expanse. They are named for the phenomenon that occurs on clear nights: the stars seem to blaze brighter here, mirrored in the phosphorescent waves so perfectly that sailors swear they are sailing along a second sky. Ancient myths claim the Isles are fragments of a shattered constellation, dropped from the heavens into the sea. Navigators, shamans, and sky-priests consider them sacred, a place where the veil between mortal seas and celestial realms thins.
