The Orange Archipelago is a collection of dispersed islands located south of
Kanto. This island cluster also contains two smaller groups known as the Sevii Isles and the Pentan Isles.
The Orange Archipelago was formed during the time of
The Divergence when a massive flood of water broke a central portion of
Ransei into fragments and pushed them out across the ocean. Due to this fragmentation of such a large piece of land, many different cultures can be found. On some of the most distant islands, there exist ways of life that had thought to have long since been abandoned. This facet makes the Orange Archipelago very attractive to historians, artists and researchers alike.
