The Isles of Ebony are one of the few places of the empire that hasn't been fully tamed. While the smaller islands have been properly established and have healthy ports and townships, The Big Island resists any attempts of civilization. Because of this, some theorize the island has been cursed or enchanted, but the government insists that is wild superstition.
Ebony Island, the smaller of the two big islands, is ruled by the Pualani Family. The island itself was raised out of the sea due to erupting volcanos, because of this the beaches are colored with black sand, giving the island chain it's name. Not every beach is stained with volcanic black sand, but the majority are.
Ebony Island is rather modern when it comes to architecture, with the surrounding islands having a more traditional approach. The islands mainly provide tropical crops and exports for the rest of the empire. This includes coffee, flowers, sugar cane, pineapple etc. It also has a decent science and research establishment.
The main body of water that borders Ebony Island and the surrounding satellite islands. The bay was named after the god of Arcana due to the beautiful and ethereal storms that occur offshore.
The waters are mainly calm and clear, with the occasional storm causing big waves and treacherous undercurrents. However storms arent the only thing to worry about, piracy is incredibly common here.
The amount of islands Bronn's Bay borders is impossible to count or name, so most just refer to them as Bronn's Islands for simplicities sake. Locals usually have nicknames for them however.
