Norfae
The Island of Norfae is located off the east coast of Francia. The island is 1368 km² in size and is located in the Cherokee Sea (by the Bjorngarders known as Bjornmunn Bay), off the Amokolian Sea.
Mysterious Sacred Island
This mysterious island has been considered for centuries as the Realm of the Northern Fae, home of the Ice Fairies. Encircled by strange mists and enchanted with ancient majiks, Norfae has no permanent human population and the isle is regarded as a sacred site among the locals.
Because of this the island was only visited by the priestess of the Temple of the Frost Bear, which started with the first voyage or Viruja. The Ice Queen of the Norfae is said to be a beautiful creature, whose gaze casts a spell upon all men who view her. The Norfae are rumoured to travel beyond their island home when other magical creatures are in need of their aid, or there is a threat to Bjorngard which the Bjorngarders themselves cannot surmount. The island itself is densely covered in trees and mists, so that is always obscured to outsiders. The priestesses who have visited it describe it as an enchanted forest where fae and other magical creatures frolic throughout the wood. It is said that the Ice Castle of Norfae is hidden deep in the centre of the island behind the shroud of the outside forest.
Ice Castle of Norfae
Deep within the forests which obscure Norfae to outsiders, there lay a great castle of ice. Constructed and held together by the majiks of the Ice Fairies, the castle has existed for countless centuries and serves as the home of the Ice Fairies and their Queen, Riasha the Ageless. The castle has only been described by the High Priestesses of the Frost Bear, who at times travel to Norfae to seek advice or aid. They are the only humans ever allowed on the island, though it is rumoured that other magical creatures and deities also visit the fairies for their counsel. It is said the thick forest near the castle is nearly impenetrable, filled with ancient trees taller than any seen elsewhere. Tall and thick enough to obscure the great castle from sight, both above and around it. Great rocks protrude from the ground at the base of the castle, and stretch up around it like a great natural foundation. And from the stone the ice extends up in sheer cliffs as far as can be seen. Although small openings and balconies - naturally only accessible to the flying fairies - can be seen across its surface.
Stone Castle of Norfae
Since the island has still not been explored, because the island itself is forbidden territory, there have been people who have sailed around the island as well as flown over the island. A stone castle can be seen from both a boat and the sky. There are observations that light was burning in the castle, but it is not known who would stay in that castle.
