Because of the [[Prevailing Winds|western blowing tradewinds]], Torlen was not first inhabited by the [[Levantia|Levantines]], but rather [[Audonia]]ns who came sporadically between 4000 and 2500 BCE and set up temporary encampments that lasted a generation or two but never longer. The abundant and docile fauna made life on the island easy for its earlier settlers, but the [[Levantine Hurricanes]] were quick to wipe out any inhabitants and the vastness of the [[Levantine Ocean]] and the primitive nature of seafaring technology meant that new arrivals were there by chance, not by choice. | Because of the [[Prevailing Winds|western blowing tradewinds]], Torlen was not first inhabited by the [[Levantia|Levantines]], but rather [[Audonia]]ns who came sporadically between 4000 and 2500 BCE and set up temporary encampments that lasted a generation or two but never longer.
