Home to a primitive civilisation that has inhabited the area since before the time of formal record-keeping, the jungle is linked to the forest of [[Rheodad]] on the [[Ishana Peninsula]] atop northern [[Sapience]] through a strange curse. | ||
Under the watchful rule of King [[Martin (king)|Martin]] the Wise, Shala-Khulia was settled c. 1000 BF as a strategic outpost to serve [[Ashtan]] in the ongoing [[Ashtan-Shallam Wars]]. The northern isle was stripped of jungle growth and a city was built in its place at the foot of the Shala Mountains. Repeated skirmishes between the island's native groups and Ashtani soldiers forced a retreat, however, and the Khulians eventually moved into the structures that Ashtan had left behind. | Under the watchful rule of King [[Martin (king)|Martin]] the Wise, Shala-Khulia was settled c. 1000 BF as a strategic outpost to serve [[Ashtan]] in the ongoing [[Ashtan-Shallam Wars]].

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 known as the Khish.

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 known as the Khish. The [[Khulia Causeway]] connects the city to the rest of the jungle. The [[Khulia River]] is a popular fishing spot for [[adventurer]]s wishing to escape the bulk of the explorers on the main continent of [[Sapience]]. To return to the Aalen Forest, one must take the ferry from Shala-Khulia, manned by [[Natalie]]. | ||
