Welcome to the Sun Vale Resort! We hope that your stay with us is full of delight. Let's answer the most common questions about the island! If your questions aren't covered, please ask the concierge, who will be happy to slake your curiosity!

About the Name "Sun Vale"

The ancient Elvish name of this island chain is Arasimorra Aris, which translates into Human as "Sun's Archipelago" or perhaps "Sun's Island". So it's natural to wonder why the Human name is "Sun Vale." The answer? Trolls! The trolls that first inhabited the large island called it Sun Vale, and they even claimed the name was chosen by their troll god! Out of respect for the trolls (and their massive clubs), sages deferred to their name choice. And the name has stuck for thousands of years!

No Scary Fairies

The largest island was once home to a "portal" to the Fae Realm, which allowed fae creatures entry to our world. This portal is long dormant and no fairies live there now, but many varieties of fae plants and animals can still be found. Because these creatures are quite dangerous, we cannot allow visitors on the large island. It would be an ecological disaster if some of these creatures ever found their way to other islands, or even worse, to Verta's mainland! However, the smaller island that you're on now is perfectly safe.

Friendly Frog People

You may spot amusing frog-creatures on the beach. These people are called Ranalon, and they're quite common across the ocean in Fosulf. This particular tribe of Ranalon have proven to be friendly, curious, and articulate. We've entered into a mutual safety agreement with them, so there's no reason for fear. They all speak fluent Human, so if you see one, say hi! We even have a resident Ranalon on hotel staff. You can meet Puffy Ben during our daily walking tours.

Reef Tours

There are three distinct coral reefs here, each more beautiful than the last. These reefs glow with a haunting light that must be seen to be believed! It's so bright that it can easily be enjoyed from our tour boats at night. The tour departs promptly at dusk every evening. If you're an experienced diver, speak with our concierge about current diving opportunities. In addition to the beautiful reefs, you may also have an opportunity to see the local Ranalon as they work on their massive "undersea bridges". You've never seen stonework this beautiful from such primitive creatures!"
