..The Firefly Isle..
The Firefly Isle is a floating island in the skies. The island was created by the daydreams of a girl who dreamed of a whole other reality then the one she lived in. She loved her little imaginary world, but as she grew older she forgot about the island and its inhabitants, and they were abandoned. The love and devotion the girl had put into this world kept this world from dying. The island floated away from the girls unconciousness, and into the world it now excists in. Today it floats around taking in souls in the need of somewhere to stay. Altrough forgotten by its master, the island continues to thrive.

The Sailship: |
|
The sailship of The Firefly Isle is a 2 poled floating ship used to get on and off the island. The ship has hull made of wood on Firefly Isle, and the offwhite sails are made from many different materials found on the island. One can ask the crew to take you to another world, or simply go on an adventure. Most inhabitants on the ships go ashore as well, but prefers the life on the ship from staying on one place. They all love adventure or something new.
The Whisper Streams: |
|
A calming place to enjoy life, the steams are known for its silence. It is a wide, shallow creek, and at some points it will flow quickly, at others almost quietly. The water springs from a lake further up that is supplied by rainwater and snow from the mountains. The clearing around the streams are like a meadow, with a few spread trees. Going futher away from the water, one will reach the forests. Leafy trees on one side, and the start of a mountain, with pined trees on the other side. In the streams one might find peace, and one can typically see inhabitants relaxing by the streams as the sun hits from over the mountains. Bubbles are also common, which attracts the sweet she-wolf Bubbles. A den rests by the trees, and houses creatures that prefer the streams over any other places.
Acuminous Mountains: |
|
Mountains stretches up from the Firefly Isle, and these are called the Acuminous Mountains from their high peaks. In winter, these are covered in snow, and by summer some of it stays to create a cirque glacier, while some melts and the water runs down to the Crystal Tarn. Creatures in these areas are often robust or very small. They live in burrows and caves in the mountains.
Crystal Tarn: |
|
The clear, crystal like water gave the lake it's name. This lake lays by the foot of the Acuminous Mountains, and rescieves water from the tall mountain and rain water. The crystal tarn is the source to the water in the whispering streams. The water shoots down a rapid from the mountains, and brings with it rich minerals. The water is also very cold up here, and does not usually house a pleasurable temperature for beings not accustomed to the terms. By time, the rapid has caved out a hole in the mountain. Where the water hits, one can find a cave. Because of the low temperature and high moisture level from the water, it is only water beings that are able to inhabit this cave. Deep inside the cave, the enviorment becomes a bit dryer, but this is replaced by a smell of iron, and the light is replaced with glowing crystals that grow from the rock.
Pancake Carpet: |
|
The Pancake Carpet got it's funny name from a joke between Orbz and Reika. It is a big area at the edge of Firefly isle that is covered with healthy green grass. A few trees is scattered around the open area, and the reason can be a bit sinister. That is; in storms, the outer Pancake Carpet is the most windfull place on the whole of the Isle. Therefore, few plants and beings are able to stay rooted and live in the outer part of the meadow. Altrough, in nice weather, this is the perfect place to play and have fun.
Élan Village: |
|
Ever since the first humans arrived the Firefly Isle, the Élan village has excised. It does not work like the real world would, but all creatures are welcome to stay. Many creatures of the Firefly Isle are at some point human, anthropomorphic characters in need of a place to be "human". As long as one can behave, you are free to stay at the village. Villagers build houses fit for different creatures, like stables, barns and more. They also grow food and cattle, using the earth of the Firefly Isle as help to survive. Unlike the real world, the villagers and other inhabitants rarely tent to fight or hunt each other.
Garden of Night: |
|
Known for a thousand different blooming flowers; the Garden of Night is one of many stunners on the Firefly Isle. When Orbz arrived at the Isle, she found the garden and named it after her father Night. Also, because in the night many flowers never seen before will bloom, and give off light, brightening up a spot in the middle of the forests. The garden is surrounded by trees, and is located in a patch in the middle of the forest. In the middle stands some tall stones, with petroglyphs engraved in it from a time before the inhabit of the new characters.
