The Isle of Singing Stones illustrated on The Scarlet Brotherhood poster map, by Sam Wood (1998).

Description

"[The Isle of Singing Stones] is a mystery to the Touv people. Touv watercraft are too small to safely attempt crossing the Hambu Strait, and towering cliffs outline the island’s shore. When the wind is right, horn-like tones come from the isle, and these tones are especially loud when a hurricane approaches."[1]"

Geography

The Isle of Singing Stones lies 75 to 100 miles across the Hambu Channel from the southwestern coast of Hepmonaland and is a rough triangle 280mi by 320mi.[2]

Rumors and legends

"Legend has it that one brave boatload of warriors sailed to the isle, found a place to land and climbed the cliffs to find a great city of black stone towers, overgrown on their lower levels with plants that bore delicious fruit and berries. The fruits put them to sleep, and they awoke back on the mainland of Hepmonaland, with no guess as to how they got there.."[1]"

Publishing history

The Isle of Singing Stones was created by Sean Reynolds and only appeared in The Scarlet Brotherhood (1998).
