The Cradle is a large island that lies between the Invelaust Ocean and the Gulf of Aserdus. Though in the past the island was home to many thriving elven cities, today the elves only occupy the northeast coastal cities of Vesuna, Calaina, and Iynx. Massive creatures now overrun the Cradle, some actively hostile to smaller life and others simply careless in what they might destroy. Many elves of Hinthial dream of resettling their once beautiful communities on the Cradle, but for now they are empty aside from the occasional brave adventurer.
