The City of Peace, or commonly referred to as the Isle of Peace, is a mysterious island hidden far across the southern oceans.

The isle was found by Sirine Winters, Empress of Aronsol, Myrkul Everwood, Proconsul of the Conclave of Magi and Mortrax Vahnahvoi of Aronsol in Icedawn 1585 AF after a white marble tablet was found with described an ancient City of Peace, written in the ancient form of the Elven tongue. After reaching the isle, a narrow walkway with a scrying room was found before a barrier preventing further access to the mysterious isle.

The isle was revealed to be created by the Creator or a similarly ancient power to nurture peace in the realm with the barriers protecting the isle's secrets, requiring a link of mana to be formed to whittle them down until each barrier falls. After years of contributions of many individuals from the mainlands, the isle was gradually unlocked, revealing nine spires separated by walkways and a number of plant-like denizens that can teach the ancient magical skill of Healing.

A number of rumours have circulated throughout the academics of the mainland about the true nature of the isle, given that it fosters all lifeforms, including demons and the Hakarren race. One of the prominent discoveries on the isle, the Eye of Judgement, was deemed to be fashioned by the Goddess of Shadows, Delvanea, while the artworks on the walls of the silent marble structures of the isle suggest it was made in the image of the God of Panoply, Nectanebus, posing deep questions about what happened to Nectanebus that led to the rise of Delvanea. Many believe that the isle serves as a tomb for the fallen God of Panoply and that the two gods were distinct beings. This remains unproven, but speculation of the quiet mysteries of the isle have continued unabated.
