    Dun Scaith

    What do we actually know about that place ?
    IIRC it's in another dimension right ? If so, i'm rather intrigued by the look of it, it looks like we run accross a normal town oO

    From the Patch 3.5 promotional site:

    The ancient tome recovered by Captain Radlia of the Talons tells of a floating refuge─an island created by Mhachi sorcerers to provide safe haven from calamitous floodwaters. With the disaster that befell the Void Ark, however, the island's intended residents never arrived. Cait Sith is convinced that Diabolos has instead claimed this refuge as his own, transforming what was to be a bastion of hope into a voidsent nest of shadowy nightmare. And it is into this fiendish lair that you must delve.
    So it seems to be not a section of the void, but another Sky Island.

    It is a Sky Island created for the purpose of a sanctuary for surviving members of Mhachi on the Void Ark. The place is one big City but sadly no one reached that City due to the incident in the Void Ark.

    Mhachi certainly put a lot of effort to build this complete City and it even shows how much resources went into it on this one Sky Island. Has that Transylvania style of look to it and makes me wonder what it may have looked like if they managed to get people into this city to develop a actual economy.

    Given what the trailer showed of the revamped Diadem, I wonder if they had some influence there as well?

    How would you spell sky island as a portmanteau?

    Skisland? Skysland? It rolls nicely off the tongue but it's wanting, visually.
