History
Shala-Khulia is a jungle island that was discovered by Garth Jaydee-Stormcrow. Home to a primitive civilization that has inhabited the area since before the time of formal recordkeeping, a strange curse has linked the jungle to the forest of the peninsula Rheodad on the Ishana Peninsula atop northern Sapience.
Geography
Shala-Khulia is located in the southwestern ocean south of Polyargos, off the coast of the Aalen Forest. It is accessible by a ferry located near the Aalen Forest manned by Nolan, and by a ferry located on the island of Polyargos manned by Nate. The island contains three distinct areas: The Shala-Khulia city, inhabited by native tribesmen; the Shala-Khulian jungle; and a series of caves within the jungle inhabited by a strange cave people. To return to the Aalen Forest, one must take the ferry from Shala-Khulia, manned by Natalie.
