Ulos

Ulos is a mountainous island rising from the Saffron Strait, at the easternmost edge of the known world, with the Shadow Lands on one side and the continent of Ulthos on the other.

Almost nothing else is remembered of it: only the ruins of a city among its mountains, without a name or a story attached.

The island at the end of the world

Ulos marks the eastern edge of the known map: an island of high mountains set in the Saffron Strait, with the Shadow Lands to its west and the shores of Ulthos facing it. No maester seems to have set foot there with enough certainty to fix its exact position.

Among its mountains stand the ruins of a city. There is no record of who built it or what emptied it — only the stone that remains, and the silence around it.
