Red Isle

Description
The Red isle is covered in pine forest, fertile plains, and Claystone formations. It is the most tightly packed area in Elmfax, but it still produces more food than it needs.

Jiko Ari is a Politician and poet from Red Arch, and he inspired the separatist movement throughout the Red Isle, instating himself as an unofficial leader. They wanted separation, because Glavendauxy required its food, and it’s young men to fight in wars that the Red Islanders knew nothing about.

The proximity of The Red Isle to Alasantine meant that until the time of Jiko Ari, it had to be under constant protection from Glavendauxy troops. In 41 3.E, a riot over conscription, and confiscation of the Island’s wheat threw out Glavendauxy’s troops. In fear of retaliation from their own country, the Red Isle struck a deal to provide food for Alasantine, in return for protection.

In 43 3.E, the King of Glavendauxy decided to invade the Red Isle with a small army. At the Battle of Coralfast in that year, Alasantine’s well prepared naval units stationed at Coralfast decimated Glavendauxy’s misinformed navy.
