Insect Mirror - Envelop component. Pool of reflective sap used to breed and store swarms of attack insects. Swarm is released on contact with any scent alien to envelop.
Identification: Appears like a still pool of water. Insects held within it can be viewed on close inspection.

Island Envelop - Also known as the Dalagoa Envelop. Constructed on the borders of the Shavlod Jungle to prevent any passage through a gateway leading from the demon world Dalagoa.
Before the Envelop was planted, the Nescan fused the ground bordering the gateway into a glassy black rock. A local tributary of the Geneal River was then split and redirected around this rock to form an island.
Known traps located amid the Envelop foundation growth include Antelop Sparks, Insect Mirrors, Tray Fungus, Flexibriars, and Sand Swimmers.

Isle of Bones - Uninhabited island 1400 miles southeast from the City of Roses. Named due to the range and number of animal bones found scattered there. Early explorers described finding fields of bones within the valleys of the mountain range that forms the central spine of the island. Stone nests were also discovered here. It is presumed that the island was once the home of a species of large predatory bird.
Approximately 45% of the bones have been identified as belonging to mammals inhabiting islands up to 400 miles away. Due to the condition of the bones, it is assumed that the predators who once inhabited the island died out several hundred years ago. Significantly, no remains of these predators have ever been found.
For a six-year period following the discovery of the Isle of Bones, a thriving fertiliser industry sprang up on the island. Bones were ground down and transported back to Borkon in the belief that the properties of the fertiliser could enrich land reclaimed from the Shavlod Jungle. Though it initially appeared to work when tested with basic jungle growths, this practice was ultimately abandoned when commercial farming was attempted and all foodstuffs emerged from the ground deformed and inedible.
Harvesting these bones is now recognised as a mistake due to the lack of information about them. Thus, the Isle of Bones is now listed under the Tinotte Prohibited Islands Manifesto.
