It had an area spanning less than 50 square kilometers and was shaped like a slightly square-like ring. The land itself was like a thin band, with a small canal near the western end called West Point which allowed water into Napari's bay.
Darius had originally wanted to pass through West Point and beach near the south-eastern part of the island, where some forests and villas lay, before he had realized how incredibly stupid it would have been.
