Off the coast of the country of Gert were the islands that grew out of what once was a celestial rock that fell to earth. It once was great, leagues across. However, a fallen space rock- which Emery knew was called a meteorite- is not so uncommon, even at this size. However, somehow the rock broke apart just above the ocean it implanted itself within, and it hit a shallow sand bank, sinking not completely under. The rocks eventually were weathered down enough to become covered in soil, and eventually flourished with greenery and animals alike. However, the jagged pieces of space rock largely retained their shapes, giving the islands a broken look. Thus, the name Broken Glass Isles stuck.

Somehow over the course of history, the copper, brass, and golden-skinned natives arrived, or perhaps sprouted from the rich stores of the same metals brought to the islands in the veins of the meteor itself.
