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.

Blockades

In September 2008, Brynhild Skullsplitter took control of the island as part of its opening for colonization.
