Exploring the Coast

This part of Siaxhi looks like it was pulled right from a lush tropic Eden itself. The jungle borders the coastline, sometimes running right down to the water's edge, sometimes pulled back revealing intricate networks of tide pools which can stretch nearly a kilometer out to the surf line. The eastern bay is shallow here and the water the purest turquoise, though Tu Vishan's berth has raised the water level somewhat. Even the weather seems to be welcoming them to Siaxhi, staying at a consistent balmy temperature and maintaining its good breeze.

Abundant in fish and other sea life, the kedan in general seem unenthusiastic about venturing into the dense jungle but they're already making plans to deploy an entire fleet of fishing vessels along the coast and bringing in what will be a record haul. Interactions with the Foreigners when they're out will be overwhelmingly positive, and while they haven't forgotten the threat of Malicant in the Palace, they do seem to be determined to be taking this stroke of good fortune without letting it cloud their intentions.

There are much smaller settlements of Arybar people along the coastline as well, and they're even more surprised to see the Foreigners than those living in the ruined city of Valishaera are. They're friendly, but any questions about the region will be directed toward the main contingent living just inland.
