St. Peters Archipelago



St. Peters Archipelago is a group of floating islands located in the White-White Sea over the New World. Their main resources are Verth and Hydrocane. Jayde D. La Coeur of the Sky Bird Pirates, and Emperor Kiba of the Red Fang Pirates, have both spent time on the archipelago.

Hydrocane
(Will eventually be it's own page) Hydrocane a sugarcane like plant that can be harvested and then, through an extraction process, Hydrogen Gas can be produced and used for lighter-than-air travel possible. In it's unrefined state hydrocane is a much more potent source of fuel for lighter-than-air travel, than extracted hydrogen gas, but it produces as by product that is damaging to the environment.

Hydrocane doesn't actually produce hydrogen gas on it's own, it converts the pure hydrogen captured from the air around it and the water that reaches it through a process similar to Photosynthesis, and turns it into chemical energy so that it can be used to fuel the plants's activities.

History
Millions of years ago, Hydrocane grew on a small group of islands in the Blue Sea, and evolved to the point where it absorbed hydrogen from the air and water and used it as a source of life. The soil of the land slowly became enriched with hydrogen gas and grew lighter as a result. It took millions of years, but the hydrogen-enriched land eventually became so light that it strained to tear itself away from the land below that was keeping it anchored. Finally it gave way and the islands rose towards the heavens.

As they rose above the sea-clouds of the white-white sea, they were discovered by a group of Skypieans and settled on. It became a relationship of symbiosis, the islands, which came to be known as St. Peters Archipelago, ceased to rise any further as the Skypieans harvested the Hydrocane, and the Skypieans discovered all kinds of uses for hydrogen gas, the most significant of which is lighter-than-air travel.
