Emerald Island, the crown of Ikaanos, is the only place left on Raana that still resembles how Earth might have looked before The Severance in 2290. It is located in the estuary where the Red River joins the Irendorian Sea. The island is now the site of the Emerald City, which is connected to the rest of Ikaanos City by a guarded bridge.
Watched over by Skyguard's elite, a resident of Emerald Island feels safe traversing the island's paved roads, where they are able to visit fancy stores selling high-tech weaponry and medical aids that are looked upon as magic by normal Ikaanian townsfolk.
Flanking Crystall Hills, with its waterside restaurants and bustling arena, we find Crystal Heights and Edgewater. "The Heights" borders The Palace and is generally considered the center of human civilization, despite the presence of a huge slave market. Edgewater is a residential area with coffee shop, hotels, small stores and gated mansions - looking almost like a typical Earthian suburb from the 21st to 23rd century.
Emerald Island has historically provided the last bastion of safety when disorder descends on Ikaanos.
