The Captain's Log: Trade Routes

These are the known trade route maps that are available to the crew in the Captain's Log adventures. Routes will be added for the mainland runs as the maps are gathered.

The trade routes are color coded based on how dangerous each one is to travel.

Green Routes: Well patrolled the City States that claim the waters (ie. the Scarlet Order or the Great Houses of Foriedy), these routes are frequented by trade ships. Vessels on these routes typically carry passengers as opposed to valuable goods, making them less than prime for pirates. They are generally regarded as safe.

Yellow Routes: Less patrolled but still see plenty of travel. Encountering other vessels on yellow routes is fairly common and traders bear a wide variety of goods. Everything from food to gold runs over these waters. These routes tend to be longer.

Orange Routes: Risky. Plenty of valuable goods cross these waters, making them prime targets for pirating ships. Near Foriedy these routes see heavy travel and ships often move together for protection. In the further reaches of the Isles they are less traveled but are often in wide expanses of open water with few options for refueling or repair if something bad happens. They should be traveled with care.

Red Routes: Dangerous. Very few ships run these routes because the threats outweigh the reward. They tend to be monster infested and often run across wide open waters with no land around for weeks.

The Ordinth Caphil island chain. Most of the traffic in this region originates to and from Foriedy as it is the largest consumer of goods. Foriedy also serves as a refueling point and safe haven for many people. It seems to be well protected from storms as well, making it the ideal refuge.

The Westerlies; Hamlim'Ra and Mesrea. Much of their island chains are volcanic, but they have proven to hold valuable trade resources, most of which are controlled by the Scarlet Order of Aluena. The Scarlet Order's head of operations are in the city of Darilach on Halim'Ra. Darilach has grown from a once humble town to a burgeoning trade location and travel destination. Folks say that you will be most at ease within the city, and the demeanor of the people living there is quite pleasant. Darilach is the hub for magical goods in the Isles and has a fairly extensive ship yard operated by the Scarlet Order.

The South Isles; Shin Malae, Zhan'Ai, and Tsol Venim. These islands are quite diverse and and hold quite a bit of value individually. Oil is gathered from Shin Malae, exotic foods and spices from Zhan'Ai, and old ruins draw adventurers to certain peril within the Tsol Venim chain.
