Fossil Hollow in the fog

Fossil Hollow is the first island location in the Bones and Holes region of Roperia. It was first released September xx, 2026 and is the xxth island in FW (xxth in Roperia).

Fossil Hollow

Description: Where the earthquake opened the ground off Sepulcro del Sol and the expedition went in. The light from above still reaches the Fissure Mouth, just about, and the water at the bottom is warmer than water has any business being. The deeper you dig, the older the fish - down through the Lava Tubes to a living sea sealed inside the earth, exactly where Corona said it would be.
