Teras Isle, home to the dwarven settlement of Kharam Dzu, is located to the west off the coast of the continent of Elanthia in the Great Western Sea.

The name of Teras' great volcanic peak was dwarven for "Stormbrow" as it was named in 4997 when the uninhabited island was discovered by Ghorsa Borthuum of the Gulroten Clan. Ghorsa had undertaken a journey in hope to find the lost Turamzzyrian province of Kezmon Isle, and to escape the threat of human expansion to the north. Instead, by travel of hot air balloon, they discovered what became known as Teras Isle.

Excited by the apparent large reservoirs of gems and metals on the volcanic island, they quickly established the town of Kharam Dzu. Soon after, a human merchant ship, driven off course by Krolvin attack discovered the dwarven settlement. The Borthuum Mining Company promptly went into business with the humans, specifically for the rare material of glaes. It was from the humans that the dwarves bought the ship which became known as the Glaesen Star.

On Jastatos the 15th, the underwater temple to the great water elemental Nelemar was discovered by a band of scholars searching for the Fier'Dracus gem.
