North Western Seas

North Western Seas

the world of Nilfeheim has technically only one ocean and except for the polar caps there aren't any easily or clearly visible regions that could be named  but humans tend to name everything and the colonists that came to this cold world learned to distinquish the regions of their planet.

To a Neo Viking the waters of the Southern Seas are a nuance greener than the waters of the Northern Seas. The water temperatures and the various depths make a difference to them and enable them to

distinquish in what region they are. The largest island Bifrost is in the West.

No one remembers just who decided where the zero meridian was, but it runs along Eastern coastline of the Island.

The North Western Sea begins just above Bifrost and merges with the Northern Seas at about where the Bendixen and Ohim Island is  and reaches to the West to about the Frandsen Island.

The North Western Seas are home to about 25 big and old Clans with islands of up to 10 square miles. The largest of which is the Olafson Rock (umtil 5015)

The North Western Seas are about 850 -900 meter deep with a few very deep underwater tremches. It is the main region where the Nilfeheim Pearl crabs can be found.
