Tralaticon Isle is a strange island west of the mainland and south of the Water City. It is made completely from a unique, dark coral not found anywhere else and the precious substance tralaticon. It is mined with significant difficulty from the dry top. The island is a winding pillar that is thickest at the bottom and nestled into a crater in the continental shelf. The island is 200 meters tall from bottom to top. The water near it is warmer than the surrounding ocean, though the reason for this is unclear. It is a place of significant interest both ecologically and economically, but the number of researchers allowed near it are few due to the mining operations.
