Description

 
The fiery core of the island.

Flamgra'in used to be a volcano in the northeastern area of Independence on the Freedom Isles server. The volcano has long ceased activity and is slumbering ever since, developing a thriving flora and fauna. The remainder of this lava spitting giant is the distinct, circular shape of its opening crater, forming the coastal line mainly as rock. But most of all and still impressing, the smoking pond of lava in its center, keeping an adjacent tar pit steaming hot.

Being the first to settle down there, despite the slumbering danger, Ulviirala took the opportuniy to call the burning island by this incisive name. Over months it turned out that the volcano has some activity after all, which has then been documented with pictures.

Geography

Flamgra'in (map) is a medium sized island situated in the far Northeast of the Freedom Isles region. It consists of three shoreline mountain ranges to the north, southeast and southwest with rolling hills in between leading up to a relatively flat forested area in the center of the island. Also located in the center is an active, ground level, lava pool.
