Janus Island

Description
East of Dagger Isle, only separated from it by a strait, is an island named Janus Island in Super Nintendo port of (unnamed in all other games and all other platforms). On it is found the entrance to one of the eight major dungeons of Britannia, the Dungeon Deceit. Other than that however, the island holds little of interest, being mostly barren and secluded in the sea.

History
Throughout history the island's only purpose was to host the entrance to Deceit, but rarely held any other significance for Britannia. By the time of the affair of the Black Gate, the entrance had somehow migrated to Dagger Isle, and a series of crypts had appears on the island - built by unknown architects.

Even the Great Cataclysm didn't affect it seriously, still housing the dungeon entrance by the time of Ultima IX and standing like it did before, although the cataclysm did drag it closer to Verity Isle, and away from Dagger Isle. It was also here that the Avatar could meet its only - albeit temporary - inhabitant in all of history, the warrior Duncan.

Trivia
