-A large, mountainous structure stands at the eastern edge of the inland sea and is commonly referred to as "Pteranodon Mountain." The namesake is due to the fact that it is an ideal nesting and roosting spot for the flying creature [[Pteranodon]]. Near the top of the mountain lies a cave with water and [[Comfort|comfort crystals]] within. Many flying creatures can live there in relative safety, only having to leave the cave for food or water (if the small pool drains completely.) The only other creatures who can access the cave outside of a [[Weather|massive flood]] besides [[Pteranodon]] are the (currently not implemented) [[Tropeognathus]] and [[Velociraptor]], the latter due to their ability to scale cliffs.

 Shallow and filled with [[Fish|fish]], [[Foliage System|kelp]], and crossing players, the inland sea of the Ancestral Plains map is a wonderful place to live for most [[Aquatic Creatures|aquatic]] or [[Semiaquatic Creatures|semi-aquatic]] creatures and an inconvenience to [[Terrestrial Creatures|terrestrial]] ones trying to move between the largest islands. However, the popularity of the location may lead one to unwanted conflicts. Aside from the sea being a high-traffic area, it is also heavily affected by [[Tide System|tides]]. At [[Tide System|high tide]], no easy land crossings exist, allowing [[Aquatic Creatures|aquatics]] to move in and out as they please. At [[Tide System|low tide]], many easy land crossings emerge, allowing [[Terrestrial Creatures|terrestrials]] to move freely. Unlucky [[Aquatic Creatures|aquatics]] who could not win the race against the tide will most likely be stuck until the tide rises again.

 ===Rivers===
-Ancestral Plains is currently the only map (besides [[Caldera]]) to feature one or more rivers. There are two on the map in total, one draining into a mid-sized lake and the other draining into the inland sea. Both feature varying strengths of current, able to pull and drag young creatures and poor swimmers with it. If a current exercises a strong enough effect on one's creature, there is a possibility of drowning. Be careful!
