Afyal

Afyal, also called the Isle of the Elephant, is a large island kingdom at the eastern edge of Zakhara, north of Sahu. It has rich deposits of gemstones and precious metals, spice and valuable hardwoods grow in abundance. Together with its advantageous position on route to Zakhara's trading partners in the far East, this makes Afyal one of the wealthiest areas of the continent. The kingdom's capital, Medina al-Afyal, is also its only real city. The landscape of Afyal is mainly untamed jungles with wild creatures in abundance. Afyal was also the location of a now fallen empire, whose ruins dot the island's jungles, often bearing inscriptions in the forgotten language Affa.
