I'll go ahead and work on an IC post. Might be up late tomorrow, not sure.
And remember guys, this world is ridiculously hard to survive in and in my opinion more desolate then the world of Dark sun. Supplies are hard to come by and people get lost at sea for very long periods of time since the world is one big ocean. Finding a floating shanty is like finding a needle in a huge haystack unless you know what your looking for.
Three trees and the kingdom of Nair are a breath of freash air and can be the highlight of peoples whole lives if they manage to get there. With only two major cities on the surface of the whole world you can see what I mean by your on your own. Many people will do whatever it takes to survive. Finding another boat or ship is both exciting and scary at the same time due to the fact that there is a fifty percent chance it's pirates, thugs, cut throats.
