Description
The Vaka Vak Islands are jagged peaks jutting from storm-torn seas. Dark cliffs endure endless waves and howling winds. Only stubborn grass and twisted pines cling to life here.
The Goliaths make their homes high on these cliffs, scaling sheer rock like others walk paths. They drag their longboats up and overturn them as shelters, curved hulls becoming sturdy roofs. Rows of these ship-shelters perch along the cliff’s edge like teeth.
Life here is merciless, but the Goliaths flourish in hardship. These sea-folk pride themselves on thriving where others perish. The cliffs ring with crashing surf, war horns, and battle chants. To dwell on Vaka Vak is to live at the world’s edge, suspended between raging sky and hungry sea.
