The Ford Islands, also known as the Fordneys, are a pair of islands along the northwest coast of Keltia. The western island is known as the Isle of Questing, while the eastern island is called the Isle of Genitsa.
The islands were first claimed by the Celtic Kingdom of Syrah, which was shortly thereafter annexed by Attera. As a far-flung colony, the islands were not settled and were eventually abandoned for many years until claimed by the Kingdom of Bosworth. It was around 1550 AN that Ryan of the Fordneys was appointed Lord by King Wentworth and the area began to see significant settlement. Roads, churches and villages were constructed to assist the settlers in carving out a life in the far north. The harsh climate prevented any significant growth, but it did create a permanent population that survives to this day. The sturdy folk that inhabit the island are renowned as master storytellers, as told in their two most famous stories; the Chronicle of Questing and the Chronicle of Plantagenet.
