Marahai is an island in the Jade Sea, found to the southwest of the large isle of Leng. It is crescent-shaped, the large bay nestling two smaller islands called Siah and Vrahai.
Geography[]
Sometimes called Paradise Island by the sailors and merchants who land upon its pale-yellow sand beaches to replenish their provisions of fresh water and fill their stores with fruit, fish and meat, Marahai is covered in a vibrant jungle filled with life, and centred around a large caldera large enough to nearly contain the entirety of the Kingswood of Westeros.
Tales from before the Long Night state the island was once largely featureless, nothing more than a large mountain isolated by leagues and leagues of the Jade Sea in all directions. When the island was rediscovered after the day once again returned, the mountain was gone, leaving only a crescent of land, and the two smaller islands of Siah and Vrahai in its place. The waters within the bay bubble with gases and carry a foul, sulphurous smell, but the winds sweeping in from the south mean that Marahai itself is rich with the scent of a hundred types of fruit, and thousands of kinds of flowers.
On the southeastern aspect of the island there is a small fishing colony, known as Vanilla Bay to those few that routinely call port. The residents of the settlement, which number no more than a hundred, mark their sun-darkened skin with vivid paints created from the wealth of flowers on the isles, and worship deities similar to those of the Summer Isles, although there is no proof of a common ancestry.
