Pelaxian discovery of the sea route to Alshar
The Pelaxian discovery of the sea route to Alshar was the first recorded trip directly from Sarpedon to the Alshari continent, via the Freda Islands and the Zhijun Islands. Under the command of Pelaxian explorer Gabo de Pogiano, it was undertaken during the reign of King Jerónimo I and Consul Sebastián Pasillas of Castrillón. Considered one of the most remarkable voyages of the Carto-Pelaxian golden age, it initiated the Carto-Pelaxian maritime trade with the Corummese Qian dinasty and other parts of Alshar, the military presence and settlements of the Pelaxian in Tanhai.
The route would be later know by Qian's scholars as the "southern route".
