Abecean Sea 03 - Viduscan Isles [chef][R4R]

[Taniquetil]

This is a redo claim for an slice of the old Cyr_Main, in order to improve gameplay value and performance.

The Viduscan Isles are a small wilderness archipelago located between Anvil and Stirk. The ancient Ayleids built the citadel of Vabriasel here - today, its abovewater reaches form the "capital" of the ferocious Wave Reaver goblin tribe, who prevent most ships from passing nearby.

Other locations:
- Jaskav Barrow, a midsize Colovian barrow hosting the tomb of a dead Shore-King
- Aschar, a midsize cave on a beach containing more Wave Reaver goblins
- Lazur Grotto, a grotto inhabited by Lamia (and a powerful Celund, if we ever get the asset)
- The wreck of the Beacon, a com tradeship which was attacked by the Wave Reavers while underway
- Shrine of St. Bendu - an old, forgotten sailor's shrine to the hero-saint of the Thrassian War

Please cut down refs in the surrounding seafloor while including a couple of interesting undersea points of interest, like the White Reef.

Load Feb 2 TD or later
-Lil bit of island stuff
-Started on the white reef, I put a lot of gold ore containers here, perhaps the name white reef can come from the sun shining on the exposed gold.
-I also decided to try out white lights for the reef, let me know if it sucks ass. Not super noticeable tbh.
-New St. Bendu shrine in
-2 new small grottoes in White Reef, let's make these low prio stretch goal ints. They will remain covered with rocks if ints don't get made in time. Thinking slaughterfish spawns and maybe a 2nd Lamia lair. Both fish if the Lamia lair on the island is too close.

[chef]

-Goblin island made
-More underwater detailing by White Reef
-Vabriasel island and ruin tweaks

[chef]

-The White Reef lamia have moved the boulder from their lair and blocked off the rival grotto
-The Goblins have sailed to Vabriasel
-Reman ruin put together for int claim
