A'jikis

Introduction
Population: Unknown

Population consists of unrecorded amounts of zanic and fy'ren.

A'jikis is a lush island off the western coast of Khale, near the invisible divide between orcish and dwarven territories. Entirely uncivilised, all attempts to colonise its shores have failed, with those brave enough to enter the jungle often being slain by the hostile fauna. The zanic keep to small villages, patrolling the coastlines for encroachers, whilst the fy'ren meditate in the dense centre of the jungles as a method of keeping the ecosystem alive and thriving.

Culture
Like Los-Orre, the denizens of A'jikis live in a semi-tribal society, though many of the zanic live solitary lives, surviving off of what they can hunt and gather. The fy'ren, being the main defense mechanism of some of the island's elder trees, silently patrol the jungle and tend to the land's needs. With no need for song, dance, or storytelling, the fy'ren only ever even speak when engaging with the zanic whom they are cooperative with.

A'jikis has no cities or over-arching social structure.

Language
Fy'ren naturally do not speak, and normally communicate through gesture and body language, or alternatively, displays utilising the vivid colours of their forms. Some zanic speak in a broken version of the common tongue, though many will resort to animalistic methods of communication. That said, both races have been known to learn the common tongue through extensive teaching.

The Island
A hot and humid jungle covers the entirety of the island. Tall swooping trees, vines as thick as arms, and tall sharp grass are staples of the island's environment, though below the earth lay treasures such as diamond, opal, and other precious gems. Guarding these wares however is an entire bestiary of creatures far deadlier than those found on other continents. Venomous snakes, spiders, and frogs have been the bane of any who have dared enter the green realm. Worse yet, giant crocodiles and lizards the size of horses have also allegedly been the cause for so many failed expeditions, though there is no strong evidence of their existence.

This vibrant hub of life is also home to plants with medicinal applications that outmatch some of the world's most profound healing magic. Yet due to the dangers of the isle, these miracle drugs are rare like a blue moon, and therefore very valuable.
