Battle of Skarloey

Skarloey Island (2008)
-

Skarloey Island, usually shorted to Skarloey, is a small Island located some miles away from EvoSide. For over 71 years, Skarloey has earned the reputation of being the equivariant of a truck stop for boats and aircraft despite the little traffic it receives nowadays. Its industry and economy solely rely on the Skarloey owned company, Rheneas Family Oil. As of 2007, Rheneas Family Oil has been undergoing a slow decline with the current Mayor of Skarloey refusing to sell the company and searching for other industrial alternatives. 


The current Mayor of Skarloey has been received with negative views, criticizing his refusal to sell Rheneas Family Oil and searching for alternatives and for funding 'non-essential' expansion projects including Skarloey's first Mayoral yacht and helicopter. The only positive thing the mayor has done, according to the citizens, is funding the construction of a small windmill farm.


Skarloey also has its own tall-tale, better known as the Discovery of Cheyenne or Cheyenne for short. It tells the story of an alleged mythical warship, better known as Cheyenne, that protected Skarloey and aided in escorting ships in and out of the island before sinking during the Great Spill of '77. No one saw any crew members on board, sailed at incredibly fast speeds, and apparently appeared to be 'too advanced' for any country to make. Although there is no evidence to prove Cheyenne's existence, a small handful of citizens have claimed to have seen Cheyenne before with one claiming to have photo evidence.
