The Einarr Plateau is a large section of the surface world of the Ethersea campaign, previously inhabited by the Einarr people. In the year preceding the formation of Founders' Wake, the head Einarr chose to escape the impending apocalypse by fleeing to the Ethereal Plane, taking much of the plateau with them.

Those who heard the Call were drawn to a location at the base of the Einarr Plateau, which would come to form a staging ground for their efforts to escape beneath the waves of the Ethersea. An ancient transport system called the Crystal Ascendence once connected the top of the plateau to a location near this temporary settlement, but its mechanisms were not well understood.

The base of the plateau had a number of unique geographic features, including tide pools filled with unique animals, a magic-imbued spring, a space-compressing sinkhole (used to dispose of trash), a black spiral staircase near a calm patch of water (covered by coral later used to construct the Brinearr), and an imposing, impassable cave.
