Wrath Scale Islands.

This was a large island connecting the south sea to the east sea. Because the desert route had been cut off by a powerful force, many traders had begun to turn to sea transportation. This was the territory of Ashrod, one of the three pirate kings. Although his forces were strong, his focus was not on the trade between the south coast and outer islands. Instead, it was on the cross-ocean trade between the eastern world and the western world. Although slavery, black market, and smuggling were lucrative trades, to this pirate king, more value was found in spice, silk and tea trading.

In this world, the weight of the spice would get you the weight of gold.
