Skypiea / White Sea (Sky Island) · first mentioned: Ch. 243
Profile
A “vast sea in the sky” at the far east of the White Sea, reached by descending one level from Skypiea. Named by Conis (Ch. 243, page 5) as the route from the sky back down to the Blue Sea — though escaping that way is called perilous and inadvisable. Establishes that there is a marked descent off the sky island (a geography Chekhov tell, load-bearing for the crew’s eventual departure from Skypiea).
Etymology
Literal, descriptive. “Cloud’s End” is the edge of the cloud-sea — the far-east point where the White Sea drops back down toward the Blue Sea below; the marked descent route off the sky island. No encoded wordplay; confidence high.
