An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

The first maps that were made by cartographers, who sailed to Thras and lived to tell the tale, show a group of sixteen islands in a semicircle, like a partially submerged coral atoll. Over the centuries, other maps have been charted by spies and the number and size of the islands have varied, suggesting that the amphibious Sload have a volatile kingdom which fluctuates in land mass, either by the tides or some other, less natural means. The map above shows it as a small chain centered between Summerset, Yokuda, and Hammerfell. The largest of the islands, Agonio, seems the most stable, though later maps show it considerably larger than earlier maps.

  • The first maps that were made by cartographers, who sailed to Thras and lived to tell the tale, show a group of sixteen islands in a semicircle, like a partially submerged coral atoll. Over the centuries, other maps have been charted by spies and the number and size of the islands have varied, suggesting that the amphibious Sload have a volatile kingdom which fluctuates in land mass, either by the tides or some other, less natural means. The map above shows it as a small chain centered between Summerset, Yokuda, and Hammerfell. The largest of the islands, Agonio, seems the most stable, though later maps show it considerably larger than earlier maps. The true and permanent aspect of Thras, however, is not something mapmakers would know merely by looking at the land above the surface. Many Altmer have been captured by the Sload, but a few were able to escape to tell of the brackish lagoon in the center of the island chain. There, the buoyant creatures move about with relative quickness and grace through an intricate network of coral formations and ancient shipwrecks.
