Description:Edit

Rhea's Crater is a large explorable area in the eastern part of the Jade Sea. The entire area is a giant quarry for the Luxons where deep excavation work can be found. The walls are littered with frozen corpses of fish from the Jade sea including creatures that resemble the Leviathan. The area seems to be named after Elder Rhea.

Rhea's Crater counts for approximately 3.4% of the Cantha Map (This assuming the border of Silent Surf and Rhea's Crater is already explored from the Silent Surf side)
