Slotisland was the Trion continent reserved for the planet's other native species, the Slots, whose country was officially the Autonomous Republic. The Slotsruins, traces of the vanished civilisation of the Laima, was on Slotisland and the Slots kept them behind a force field to keep them secure from outsiders. Slotisland's secluded location, in the middle of an ocean that covered most of Trion's eastern hemisphere, was undoubtedly helpful in this regard. (PROSE: Turlough and the Earthlink Dilemma)
