Quadra Isles

The four islands that make up the Quadra are quiet and uninhabited except by the trees, birds, deer, bear, and wolves that roam their rocky lands unhindered. The islands are protected by an ancient sleeping charm that puts any sentient creature to sleep once they come here. Ancient beyond memory, no one knows why this untouchable spell protects these sullen foggy rocks. Many scholars believe a great weapon lays hidden in the islands, perhaps something that made the deserted wastes what they are, a nearly lifeless void. Others believe that a God live in the Quadra Islands, still more conclude that the sleeping charm is a lie and try to land, only to never wake again and rot on the shores or under a large cedar. All the wizards and sorcerers who have sought to crack the charm have failed.
