Astral Caverns

Written by Sylmanos

At a glance this outpost doesn’t look like much. Indeed, it in fact appears to be a singular building in the desert portion of the island. Nor is the inside of the building all that special as it only has a singular check in desk and a massive cargo lift. It isn’t until one steps onto the cargo lift and descends beneath the sands that the truth of the Astral Caverns is found. Inhabited by a sizable number of natives, the Caverns posts a decent sized hamlet that is lit by the light given off by the crystalline walls of the caverns. These huge crystals are not exactly aspected, but they do all but hum with aetheric energy. It is theorized that these caverns do have something to do with the past Geomancer Inhabitants of the Island, but there has been no confirmation of that yet. For now, the Consortium uses this place as a means to obtain supplies of crystals.

Government

Though on the smaller side, the Astral Caverns settlement is fairly well organized. Slightly too large to be governed by a single individual, the settlement is instead run by a Council of Elders. The Council is made up by the three eldest members of the settlment. These three join together to determine the laws of the settlement and pass judgement.

Infrastructure

Main Aetheryte: No
Aethernet Access: Yes

History

While many people of the island can claim relations to the ancient Geomancers that once called the island home, the people of the Astral Caverns claim to still follow their ways. It is true that the arts of Geomancy have been used and passed down through the ages.

Locaded in the Desert Biome.
