The Sea of Darkness is an expanse of ocean on Yridia II covering roughly 900,000km². The expanse is named for an area of the sea surrounding the island of Koa, a black coral reef encircling the nearly 2,000km² island. In addition to Koa, there are 171 smaller islands - 5 of which are scarcely populated, the rest are uninhabited. The Sea of Darkness is currently the domain of Maxamillian von Oberst-Tarentae, the first grant ever issued to a member of Clan Tarentum.

Ecology

The Sea of Darkness, like all coral reefs, is home to an incredible diversity of life. The oceans see bony and cartilaginous fishes; corals; echinoderms and aquatic mammals. The islands range from rainforests to deciduous to desert. Welshman has dispatched many teams from The Mystic's Asylum to study much of the wildlife, with the Field Marshal's leave.

Oberst takes special care to ensure the Sea of Darkness is properly managed. Quotas are strictly enforced, those fishermen and aquatic farmers that exceed their quotas are heavily fined, and often lose their license to fish and harvest. Poachers and polluters are executed without trial.

Papatee

The "city" of Papatee is a collection of dwellings, warehouses and houseboats. The city provides the majority of the workers for Oberst's personal estate. Those not working the estate are employed as fishermen, divers or employed in the warehouses or offices of the warehouses. The constant flow of foodstuffs from the Sea has also necessitated minor offices be set up for the export houses headquartered in Taras. From these offices, bids and orders are taken and filled with much of the food earmarked for export. That not exported is sold daily in Papatee's open air markets.

Esten

Oberst's private residence, the Villa Esten occupies some 75,000sqm. With a 35 room manor house (15 suites and 20 apartments), 3 libraries, stables, and offices for Oberst's military and private staff. The property itself includes both meticulously manicured gardens and wild gardens for native flora, and water craft stables. Of particular note is the lack of droid staff. Oberst eschews droid staff for most work, as sentient, biological staff can be trained to be silent and unseen - particularly when it comes to care of guests occupying suites.

Esten dominates the eastern peninsula of Thinos Bay. Directly opposite from Esten is the Estate set up for the Summits of Clan Arcona.

Arconan Estate

Per the Treaty of Kessel, Clan Tarentum has constructed an Estate for use by Clan Arcona upon Yridia II. Oberst graciously donated the land for the Estate on the island of Koa. Occupying 30,000 sqm, the villa sits facing Esten on the western peninsula of Thinos Bay.
