Elóin Ocean

The Elóin Ocean [ell-OWE-in], also called the Muor Darat (Mayápo) or Sea of Tears, is an alleged body of water in the Obverse lying to the far west of Anásthiasplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigAnásthias

Anásthias [a-NAS-thee-ass / ænæsθiːæs], or [an-ass-THEE-as] is an equatorial island continent, heart of the Civilised World. The north straddles the equator and is hot and humid, while most of the equatorial centre is an upland plateau with fertile river valleys, and stretches of arid plains and desert in the shadow of the mountains. The south is temperate but more wild, separated from the civilisations of the north by the almost impassable Harthera, west of the isles of Hi-Li-Ven. Since few sailors have made it past the Barrier Isles, the existence of the ocean is highly speculative and considered to be a legend mentioned only by ancient Miyarrain writers.

In 9th century maps inspired by the duospherical theory, the Sea of Tears is a body of acrid salty water a similar size and shape as Anásthias, surrounded by a whole hemisphere of dry land.
