The Earth Dragon Isle is a sandy, cavernous island created by [[FATE]] to house the Earth Dragon. Consisting of dunes and rocky outcroppings on the surface, below it housed caves and streams of pouring sand; these runlets reemerged in quick dashes called sand boils. Access to the lower area was allowed only through descending through a large curtain of quicksand that served as the cave's center ceiling. The lowermost chamber existed to a huge cavern where the Earth Dragon resided; it included a bulky outcropping above and opposite the entrance. After [[1010 A.D.]], the Earth Dragon only existed in the Home dimension; in [[1020 A.D.]], [[Serge]] successfully challenged it to receive the Yellow Relic. The process of reaching the Dragon was not easy, and required the use of explosives and clever insertions into sand boils. The [[Explorer Corps]] explored the area in both worlds; their exploration in Another World was facilitated by the stoppage of the sand flows, which uncovered entrance to the lower caves in the center of the island. In this dimension, a beast called the Criosphinx nested in the isle after the Earth Dragon disappeared. It challenged trespassers with riddles of an [[Elements|Elemental]] nature.
