Vulcan Islands

The Vulcan Islands are a remote chain of volcanic islands far to the southeast of Luxemburg, separated by a small ocean. They are the location of the Castillon Rift and, as the site of Severin Falkenrath’s final fusion, contain all five shares of the Curse of Ravana within their earth.

History

Avari era: The islands were inhabited by locals but unknown to most of the mainland. Elias Castillon used them as a hiding place after his father’s death in 1362, exploiting their obscurity. Severin Falkenrath eventually tracked him there. Elias threw himself into a volcanic fissure rather than allow Severin to take his share. The energy released formed the Castillon Rift.

Post-Avari: The islands remained sparsely inhabited and largely unknown to the broader population of Luxemburg for centuries.

Modern era: The Vulcan Islands were developed into a luxury tourist destination by the Vulcan Resort, drawing wealthy visitors with mineral baths heated by volcanic activity and dramatic cliff and mountain formations produced by the Castillon Rift. Their connection to Avari history is not publicly known.

~21st century: Severin Falkenrath’s final extraction attempt fused him into the earth here. All five shares of the Curse of Ravana are now entrenched in the land.
