The Fnós Islands¹ form a small archipelago in Galafam Sea, off the coast of Þonnanó in southwestern Emlas. Most of the inhabitants are native Fnóans along with a few Vósali from southern Þonnanó, the latter which are mostly found in coastal settlements.

Geography

The archipelago consists of four main islands and numerous smaller ones, most of which are volcanic in origin and thus are often hit by earthquakes, landslides and volcanic eruptions, but the mountains offer spectacular views to those who dare climb them. The largest islands are Enei-e to the northwest, Órrna to the east, Fnyn to the north, and Timim to the southwest.

Fauna & Flora

Lush, tropical rainforests cover most of the islands, especially the highlands and coastal regions, while the interior of the two largest islands features tropical savannas as well. Due to their proximity to the mainland and human activity, the wildlife mostly resembles that in coastal Þonnanó, with notable animals including civets, deer, ovenbirds, coral snakes, saltwater crocodiles, crabs, crab-eating foxes and a variety of monkeys, insects, birds and fish.
Palm trees, betel nuts and arrowroots are common on the Fnós Islands, all of which are cultivated extensively by the natives along with waterlilies and various spices introduced from the mainland. Myriad kinds of flowers are also found there, many of which are endemic to each island.

Natural Resources

Jade, marble, copper and gold are found in large quantities on the archipelago, along with pearls and rare kinds of shells.
