Omboru
Omboru is one of the Summer Isles, and of the archipelago's three largest islands the one with the fewest people living on it.
Its forests hold aurocorazón wood, rare enough that it grows only here and on Jhala, and a reddish breed of ape found nowhere else in the known world.
Chapter 1
The least populated island
Books only
Of the three largest Summer Isles, Omboru has the fewest people living on it. Forests cover nearly the whole island, broken only at its eastern and western edges by rivers.
Along with Jhala, it is the one place where aurocorazón wood grows. Its trees are also home to an ape found nowhere else in the known world, a breed called the Old Red Men.
Laid over a map, Omboru is larger than all of the Stepstones combined.

Ringed by other islands

Omboru does not sit alone in the sea. To the north, across the Mar Sonriente, lies the Isla de los Pájaros. To the south, past the Estrechos del Índigo, is Jhala.
To the west cluster three smaller islands: the Tres Exiliadas, the Rocas Cantarinas, and the Isla del Amor.

What we are not sure about
PositionWe worked it out
The position was inferred from the label on the base map rather than from a symbol of its own: it marks the area, not the point.
