The Eye of Aquaron is an endless vortex that turns and boils in the Great Western Sea, between the continents of Caligran and Canarque.1

The separation of the continents

Imperial accounts hold that the two continents were separated in this way by the will of the gods, and that the separation forced Canarque into obscurity within the mists of history.1

The histories count the separation of the two continents by the Eye among the consequences of The Desolation, together with the deaths of gods and whole civilisations and the spread of a vile desert over more than half of Caligran. Before it, in the First Age, there were no barriers in the Great Western Sea.2

A barrier of the gods

Religious doctrine held that the Eye of Aquaron, a barrier and a massive vortex, marked the known boundary of the Great Western Sea. According to that dogma the gods had placed the barrier there to protect humanity, and piercing it would have devastating consequences.3

On these grounds the High Church protested when the Archon wizard Castor Onerio set out to sail west in 285 AVD. His ship, the Imperius, returned four years later, in 289 AVD, with the discovery of Canarque.3
