Sparrow Isle is a small island located just west of the northern aspect of the Shadow Lands in the Far East.
Geography and Location[]
Sparrow Isle is due east of the second largest island in the Jade Sea, Leng, located offshore from the estuary of the river Forlorn. To the south is the famed and mysterious city of Asshai.
Topography[]
Sparrow Isle is somewhat of an anomaly among the other isles of the Jade Sea in that it is not covered in thick jungle. Instead it is dominated by near-arid plains and crags, the vast horizons broken only by queer flat-topped trees of orange and pink. It is claimed that once Sparrow Isle was also covered in forest, but the people of Yi Ti and Leng came and cut down the forest for use in creating a great fleet. The cruel winds that tear across the Shadow Lands ravaged the isle in the centuries after, leaving it barren of its once rich and lush soils.
A few fishing villages exist along the northeastern coast and are patrolled by riders upon steeds not dissimilar to the camels used by the people of the Bay of Dragons.
