An Important Location

The distant lands or the name most natives give it ocelotl hualnemi is a massive expanse of land so far to the west that only few well taught scholars and adventurers know of its existence, only a miniscule amount is inhabited by natives. The largest settlement being a port town called portus aliena named by the main land aspalians that landed there and truly that is just a few abodes and a dock. Geographically the dirt is a dark shade of red like a desert but with shrubs, bushes, trees and many many native plants covering it. The people there are smaller than the average aspalian but only slightly, they all quite tanned and like to keep their hair short and well cut, one of the only civilized things about them. there are many tribes scattered all across the western coast. many brave explorers have tried to enter the densely packed hill forests behind the coast none have returned, only with the help of the locals have explorers been able to travel through the forest but even the most experienced tribesman wouldn't pass what is called the meztli teptels or the moon mountains mountains so tall they look like they are touching the moon and so endless that they are uncrossable. One very welcoming tribe sailed back with one of the  adventurers and started a settlement on a small island off the coast of aspal they died a few weeks later, there seems to be a pattern with apalians making contact with these tribes people and then both people dying soon after with only a few lucky exceptions. It is not known whether it is the same for the trobunions or the falkner cause the same effect. One harrowing case that happened on a mission to settle a small group of aspalians on the coast, there was a settler who had gotten a tribeswoman pregnant the baby was so large and deformed during labour it ripped the mother in two the father died of a sudden illness a week later, the baby was taken by the tribe leader and he called it a bad omen he left the newborn in the middle of the forest for the wild beast to feast on and he killed the rest of the settlers to make amends to the gods.
