Canon Information

Demise is a small island domain perched atop of the The Finger, a small archipelago that protrudes from Lamordia and into the Sea of Sorrows. A labyrinth is to be found at the center of the island, where stand countless statues of people seemingly in the throes of terror. Althea, a medusa, is both darklord and ruler of Demise.[1][2]

The ship Doma Ordana crashed into the island in approximately 686 BC. Those of the crew that weren't killed in the accident met their doom in the labyrinth that holds Althea, save for Captain Johan Werner, whom escaped, though blinded and still trapped on the island.[1][2]

The spellbooks of the sorcerer known as Omega were found on the isle of Demise.[3]

Demise is explored in more detail in Quoth the Raven Issue 21 (pg. 139-174).
