Upon surveying the area, he found himself to be on an island called Ulangi, which we now know is an island off the southeast coast of Sapience. He wandered the island, fearing for his safety, and in doing so, he came across a [[Serach|Sentinel]] whom he had never heard of and spoke with him of rituals and [[quests]]. | ||

From the fishing village of [[Shastaan]], a short, reasonably priced ferry ride, manned by [[Gareth]], will get you there. From Ulangi, one can also gain passage to the nearby island of [[Mysia]]. The western coast of Ulangi sports a sandy coastline from north to south, though the sand dunes grow especially thick at the northwestern corner of the isle. | ||
