History
Celesta Isle was originally located on the Malachite Ocean. An inscription on a fetish to the south west reads, "This island were fashioned by Sindaia."
A celesta is a musical instrument similar in shape and keyboard mechanism to a piano, but with the hammers striking metal plates such as those found in a glockenspiel rather than strings. It takes its name from the French word celeste, meaning "heavenly".
The island featured in the 2008 Halloween events — during the event, pirates who visited the island would be turned into ghosts, and it contained the third hint for solving Vargas the Mad's riddle.
