Ishallr: Entrance & Main Camp

Welcome to Ishallr. A tiny island which would probably never be named were it not for the ice caves on it. Scalvorians have always believed that they are constantly shifting and changing. However, as of Vhalar 716, when the Academy started to fund the exploration, what was known about this place started to grow exponentially. The small group of scientists are delighted to be here and they have discovered, already, a number of things about the caves.

The most important thing is that not all of them move. They have spent this time, up until 1st Ashan 717, mapping out which caves are moving and which are "stasis caves". A group of hardy (some might say foolhardy) souls have been hired by the University in Andaris, and the Viden Academy in both Viden and Scalvoris to explore these "statis caves"

Main Camp for the expedition has now been set up at the entrance to these caves. Visitors to Ishallr, either for the expedition or for the tours which have been set up, will be taken to these entrance caves.

No matter what the weather on the rest of Scalvoris is doing, here it is freezing. The floor outside is deep snow and inside is at a constant temperature of truly uncomfortable. The "reception" area once you step into the caves themselves is an abandoned area. There is no receptionist, no people here. Really -this place is like no other. The walls are ice, the floor is snow and, as much as it should be dark in here? Somehow, it's bright light. Like the ice itself is glowing. Following the Events of the Forging in 721, the caves appear to have stopped moving, but until the whole place is explored again - no one knows for sure.

They're also looking for someone to lead new explorations and things.

Expedition

Message from: Pegasus

Anyone is more than welcome to visit Ishallr in a general sense. Seeking out some of the more unusual creatures may require mod input If you plan on exploring in any detail, let the mods know! If there is an expedition open, this post will be opened for a limited time so that players may register. Notices will go up about this. It is important to note that this is not a nice place. You could get very dead here. High risk.
