The Nest

The Nest was a series of floating islands above the ocean that was home to the Aarakocrans. While Caius Oiseau was emperor, the Nest was under heavy lockdown, with only Aarakocrans and Elves allowed on the islands, and only Aarakocrans allowed on the main island, which was surrounded with arcane glass. Those within the arcane glass were heavily monitored, they were required to wear arm bands that tracked their location, and any spells above 1st level would ping their location, causing law enforcement, or (if the spell was a high enough level) the military to investigate.

It was brought out of the sky when The Keepers of Eight killed a cloud elemental that was enslaved within the main island. The resulting wave had destroyed a druidic society the coast, while the islands sinking to the bottom of the ocean had destroyed part of a Water Elf city.
