The Starstone Isles collectively refers to the Isle of Kortos and Isle of Erran in the Inner Sea. ("Kortos" means "starstone" in Azlanti, and the Isle of Kortos is sometimes referred to as "Starstone Isle".) Aroden raised the isles from the sea floor in 1 AR in the act of bringing the Starstone from its resting place in the Inner Sea's depths. Due to their importance to the people, Absalom and the Starstone Isles are usually considered a microregion of the Inner Sea region in their own right.
