Far Isle

Amber is on a sphere in a universe where there is no other sentient life in the universe. Amber, Rebma, Tyalece, and Acadia are all in the northern hemisphere.. Far Isle is as far from Amber as its possible to get, nearly opposite it on the planet in the Southern Hemisphere.

This series of islands, rock outcrops, sand bars, coral reefs and sunken ships is sparsely inhabited mostly by small communities of mostly retired sailors.

The climate is sub-tropical with warm daytime breezes and cool nightly breezes. Occasionally humid, but normally comfortable.
