ANS Morris Island is a seastack located in the middle of Presqu'vent Bay and part of AFB Presqu'vent, a large naval facility home to the Linack Squadron of the Aininian Home Fleet. A heavily-defended structure, the Bank of Ainin's gold reserves are located underneath it in an undersea tunnel network only accessible from a blast-protected entrance point on Morris Island.

It has the unusual status of being commissioned as a gun cruiser of the Aininian Navy, even though it is a stationary rock.
