The Island, as the people of Trelis Weyr and its holds call it, has been on Pern a very long time. It wasn't somehow man-made, and it wasn't something that just suddenly rose out of the ocean during an earthquake. Some geologists believe that it stemmed from Ista, others that it is from Southern. Either way, it is Tropical in climate, and full of diverse wild life found no where else on the planet. Split in half by a mountain range that holds Trelis Weyr and Trelis Wherhold at its center, The Island also is divided by a river for which the Weyr got its name. There are two holds on The Island, Sollace and Apolla. The former is home to the more manual forms of crafts such as farming and fishing, while the later is where the more artistic forms are found like healing and all types of harpers.
