Chiretta is the collective name for the grouping of small volcanic islands located along the eastern trade routs, although the name refers specifically to the largest of the islands. The island chain consists of 5 main islands of varying sizes as well as dozens of small islets formed over time by undersea fissures. Being formed by valcanic activity the islands are covered in rich soil which supports it's rich forests, but at the same time left the islands nearly devoid of significant mineral deposits.The islands were first discovered and colonized by the raspeen after their exodus from Hal'icrivei. Today it serves as a major port for trade ships making oceanic voyages between the eastern and western continents, and has even developed a small but growing population of human residents.
