Ista island is much like Hawaii. A low mountain ridge forms the backbone
of the island. Ridges run off to the sea, forming isolated coves on the
south and west sides of the island. On the east side of the central
ridge, rolling grasslands slope out to the sea. The eastern shore of the
island is all white-sand beaches and rolling sand dunes. The western
shores are white or black sand (depending on proximity to volcanic
activity), and tropical forests stretch from ridgetop to beach in almost
every cove.
South of the Weyr are several smaller islands, including one still-active
volcano.
