“Azys Lla is a great and mysterious land which was raised into the heavens by the Allagans more than five thousand years ago. Isolated by a barrier of high-density aetheric energy, the floating isle was cloaked from the naked eye, and drifted throughout the Sea of Clouds. However, after the discovery and use of an ancient key, the isle was rendered visible to the outside world once more.
— In-game description

The Gration and Dreadnaught Landing
Lore
Alpha Quadrant
From what has been gleaned from the explanations provided by the terminals, the Alpha Quadrant was the main entrance to Azys Lla, from where people would travel to the port of Helix, to "congregate and offload various supplies." What manner of supplies, however, remains a mystery.
Helix
A massive port of sorts that stands among the wastes of Azys Lla. According to a guidance node discovered near the ancient construct, it was one of the few imperial landings massive enough to house Ragnarok-class internment hulks. It would seem the docking rings that remain are but a fraction of those that stood in bygone days.
Centrifugal Crystal Engine
This seemingly indefatigable engine harnessed the power of the imprisoned Warring Triad to transmute the life force of chimera experiments into synthetic crystal. These manufactured shards would then be used to fuel the cultivation of the chimeras as part of research into the possibility of obtaining limitless power.
Beta Quadrant
The development facilities pertaining to chimera conjoining experiments were chiefly located in the Beta Quadrant. Test subjects which broke free from their confinement tubes now contend with other escaped monstrosities, allowing only the fittest specimens to survive.
Recombination Labs
These laboratories are believed to have given birth to countless numbers of chimerical creations. Though Azys Lla guidance nodes are quick to assure all visitors that the good behavior of the creatures created here was-at least at one point-guaranteed, recent visitors may find the situation dramatically altered.
Biomass Incubation Complex
A research complex dedicated to chimera splicing experiments. Its construction was prompted by "imaginative requests" from the Allagan Research Council and related institutes, leading to the cultivation of all manner of living prototypes. The Mutagenesis nearby serves as an annex to the complex.
The Habisphere
The Habisphere served as a residential area for the families of the imperial generals and researchers who were stationed on Azys Lla.
Gamma Quadrant
Researchers stationed to this quadrant oversaw the development and creation of unmanned weapons and devices such as nodes. Upon their arrival at the complex, the Garleans made use of the internment hulk landing in this area to anchor their dreadnaught, and in recent moons have been seen surveying locations to begin construction on a new fortress: Castrum Solus.
The Gration
Flagship of the VIth Legion of the Garlean Empire, of the same make as the fallen Agrius. It now lies grounded, its ceruleum engines sealed in aetheric ice by the hand of Shiva, Lady of Frost.
The Cathedral
A cathedral designed in a distinct Meracydian style. The architecture suggests a place of worship by a tribe of treelike beings who believed themselves as the "remnants" of Sephirot. To research the link between faith and primal summoning, the Allagans moved the ancient structure to Azys Lla from its original location on the southern continent.
Delta Quadrant
Research in the Delta Quadrant facilities was focused on enhancing dragon physiology and perfecting control methods. To monitor and “cultivate” selected specimens, dragons were brought in from Meracydia and placed in paddocks which replicated the environment of the southern continent.
Esh Thom
To the untrained ear, one would think that this paddock was named by the dragons enslaved there. However, this is false; Eorzean linguists have confirmed there is no actual meaning for the words “Esh Thom” in the dragon language. As the Allagans considered dragons a lesser race, scholars surmise that the name is somehow intended to mock the Meracydians' heritage.
Antithesis
Home to Tiamat, great wyrm of Midgardsormr’s first brood, who fell to and was imprisoned by the Allagans. Even now, she laments her fateful decision to resurrect her beloved brood-brother Bahamut as a primal to aid her in her struggle. [1]
