A color map of Tastael Island


This small island stands in the Eilc sea, in the gap created by the ends of the Isle of manach, helping to create the Gulf of manach. The island is covered with a thick forest which is an extension of the Ohtasiwa forest on the Isle of manach. The island has no permanent settlements or villages, though it is rumored to be home to an old hermit or two

The island is generally considered to be unsafe on account of the local wildlife, which are rumored to be quite savage. Despite this, the island is often used by pirates and trade ships as a stopping point for ships traversing the Eilc sea
