I know I've been neglecting to update this, and I apologize. So, without further ado, I present to you, three area updates in one. Far off in the ocean lies a solitary island, known as Snowpoint. Regardless of the season, it is constantly covered in a frigid winter setting. Analysts are led to believe it having to do with the top of the Celsius Falls, atop the Icicle Plateau. Although no one has been able to properly investigate it, due to being unable to enter it from above, or scale to it from below, rumors have been leaked by the islanders that it is where Boreas, one of the forgotten gods of the realm, has been confined.
The island is composed of three parts presently accessible: Outer Snowpoint Isle, where the dock can be found. Further north, the basin of the Celsius Falls hides an icy tunnel, which leads further into the island. Just outside the tunnel is the surroundings of Snowfall Village, where many of the islanders live. Despite the fact that it is so frosty year-round, the village gets a healthy flux of tourists that come in, and they have made a humble business prospect by opening their gates to any interested in coming. As a traveler heads through the town, they may come across the northern gate, which separates the true trouble from the rest of the island.
Inner Snowpoint Isle, which was previously blocked off to tourists due to the dangerous blizzard that was raging around it, is now explorable for villager and adventurers alike. It isn't, however, the innermost point of the island; it is merely named that, as there is no other way into it. The only access lies through going through the village, as there is a strange cloud covering that blankets the zone, preventing anyone from entering other ways. A fierce dragon, known as the slickwing drake, makes its home around this part of the island, but due to the blizzard, its own wings have chilled over, making it impossible to leave the area, let alone fly far enough to try.
Inner Snowpoint Isle, much like Snowfall Village and its surrounding area, are surrounded by a wall of rock, sealing the island in on all sides except for the southern tip, nearest the dock. It is for this reason that they have extended tourism year-round, so they can amass enough money to attempt to break the walls down and increase trade to the other islands, even the mainland. The threat of the forgotten god atop the island's highest peak steers many from trying, though.
Outer Snowpoint Isle can be reached quickly by going through the portal to the Three Towers, going all the way south, then heading west.
