Mistmantle Island is the island from which the Mistmantle Chronicles are centered. It is surrounded by enchanted mists that make entering Mistmantle extremely difficult. Most animals are unable to pass through the mists just once. If an animal makes it past the mists more than three times, they will die. Only Voyagers can go beyond the mists and return more than three times. The mists were given to the animals of Mistmantle by the Heart.

Mistmantle is ruled by a King and Queen and has a group of animals called the Circle who counsel them. There are also Captains who are second-ranking to the King and Queen, as well as priests. Captains, as well as members of the Circle, can take promising animals under their wing as Pages. As a Page, they serve the animal they're bound to, learning valuable skills along the way. Many Pages eventually become members of the Circle or Captains. The animals of Mistmantle are protected by the Tower Guard, animals tasked with the defense of Mistmantle.

Threading of Mistmantle Colour small copy

Mistmantle is a geologically diverse island, featuring beaches, forests, cliffs, plains, rivers, and waterfalls. There is only one known above-ground structure of major size, that being the Tower, Mistmantle's castle, where the royalty and captains live. Underground, however, there exists a network of mole-made, underground tunnels, some of which go all the way to other islands. The jewel of the mole's work is the Old Palace, an extremely ancient network of secret rooms, which was abandoned for hundreds of years, but eventually rediscovered shortly before the events of the first book.

Places on Mistmantle[]

The Tower[]

Main article The Tower.

The Tower is a castle perched on a cliff near the sea, on the East side of the island. The stone from which it is made is a golden yellow, with pink flecks running through it. Periodically, all the animals of Mistmantle are invited to the tower for the big festivals of the year, such as the Spring Festival, as well as big events, such as Coronations. Apart from these events, the only animals who inhabit the tower are Captains, the royalty, and animals who work within it, e.g, kitchen workers, maids, etc.

Anemone Wood[]

Main article Anemone Wood.

Anemone wood is a small woodland neighborhood where many of the islanders live, such as Apple and Scufflen. It is located more or less in the center of the island. The trees it features are of no note, with Anemone Wood being a primarily deciduous forest. Much of the island's food comes from Anemone Wood.

Tangletwigs[]

Main article Tangletwigs.
The Tangletwigs is a forest on Mistmantle, named after the amount of interlocking "twigs" it features. The amount of twigs present makes it very hard to navigate, so generally the only animals who venture in are animals that live there. Many of Mistmantle's acrobats are squirrels from the Tangletwigs, gaining their agility from navigating the Tangletwigs on a daily basis.
