Ridorana Cataract



The Ridorana Cataract is a location in the land of Ivalice in Final Fantasy XII. It is a strange geographical location, where there is a huge hole in the ocean.

Location
The Ridorana Cataract is located in the far east of Ivalice, in the Jagd Naldoa region. Since it is located in jagd territory, it is impossible to reach by airship normally, and the tides surrounding it make it impossible for normal ships to approach.

Sites
On the edge of the cataract is a small island, with a tall tower on it, called The Pharos, due to the fact it resembles a lighthouse. Other than that, not much is known about this region.

"A strange opening in the seafloor that has created an endless whirlpool, drawing the surrounding sea ever downwards. An island is situated at the cataract's edge, on which stands a great pharos surrounded by ancient ruins. Its size suggests that once a great city flourished here, but of its rise and fall nothing is known. The area surrounding the island is jagd, preventing approach by airship, while the proximity of the cataract and its tidal pull make it impossible to reach the island by sea."
