The world used to have only 2 continents, the primary continent split during its first Epoch (an era of lost history). During this same period, the land masses had become misshapen, however that crest at the top of the world was an intentional carving by a particularly powerful empire during the worlds second Epoch, at the end of which the empire was destroyed by its own actions and fell into chaos.
In section 6 with that massive set of successive calderas, known as the isle of Dtum (pronounced toom), the sea around it is a constant shifting sea of sand, it has the consistency of quicksand in most places, others a full sandbars, with some interspersed areas of silty sea water. This makes sea travel through the region rather difficult with specialized craft. This is caused by the near constant "hum" comming off of the caldera, this kicks up all the sand and silt from the sea floors relatively shallow sea region (most areas are less than 20' deep in that area and are littered with numerous ruins from a lost civilization of the first Epoch).
when I do my KS (hopefully at the end of the year) Ill be commissioning my own artwork, these are just pics I admire that fit the general idea of what I am doing for that particular region (sometimes people need a picture to really understand, thats why I posted them )
