Lausse

A southern unexplored island thought to be dense jungle all the way through. Though efforts to explore the island have been made, very little progress has been made due to its denizens and nature. All manner of horrible magical beasts call Lausse home, savage and brutal mockeries of life from the mainland that would put even Jales to shame. Worse still is the island’s innate magic seems to corrupt civilized people who get lost in the jungle, few people going missing only to be later found as savages ready to kill their previous expedition members. Still the combined efforts of Mistfall, Terranus, Vincer, and even Haldrod have penetrated lightly into the island. Inside they’ve found scraps of something, clearly unnatural items that most think can’t have been the product of the magical beasts inside.

Black metals with a glossy sheen that are impossible to scratch, some sort of leather which held its shape until bent with heat. Crystals that magnify magical effects, strange pale shards which melt at low heat but are difficult to shatter. Many oddities, however the largest sample of any of these material is barely the size of a fingernail, held now by a merchant on Mistfall.

Worse yet the island is protected similarly to Mistfall, attempts to divine information come up unreliable, false, or just fail entirely. Teleportation attempts have resulted even worse than its sister island, the few fools who have tried it almost never being seen again and the ones that do only in scattered pieces returned moments after teleporting.
