The Ember Isla
The central volcano on the Ember Isla radiates a restless, pulsing energy; a contradiction to its supposed dormancy. While the strange nature of the volcano has discouraged many Faians from permanently settling, those who persisted in staying have become masters of harnessing the island’s geothermal power… for cooking. With magma lakes and natural hot springs scattered all around the island, the practice of cooking with heat has become a central part of Ember Isla culture, resulting in a distinct regional cuisine that residents are fiercely proud of.
