How the Island of Prasea Emerged
The island of Pracee is the setting for L.E. Vega's novels. Since
her Freshman Year, when she studied Jonathan Swift, author L.E. Vega knew that she someday
would write about an imaginary island, parallel to Jonathan Swift, who
satirized and parodied versus pointing a finger at the colonizer. Eventually,
L.E. Vega brings to life Prasea, the literary imaginary island. Prasea
represents Puerto Rico, the tropical island that inundates the author’s
imagination, especially during her childhood.

Excerpts from the novel
"Ms. Quixote Goes Country"
The Treading Islands formed a series of steps that slide up to The Bahama in the
shape of a rocking chair, if you take a look at its delineation on the map. The Native
Indians believed that the Treading Islands functioned as a volcanic sentinel that
guarded the United States Mainland, like the wall of a fort that erupted as if to warn
that the enemy was coming. They also believed that the East Coast of the United
States was much closer to the Treading Islands until one of nature's catastrophes
petered out the entire East Coast. Otherwise, little is known about the Treading
Islands, other than the breathless volcanic scene that they impart.
Prasea was the only Treading Island that became inhabited, miraculously, since
it sits on the tip of a volcano. It is also the largest of the Treading Islands in the
Atlantic Ocean, south of the Equator from Greenland, and south east of Nastas and
Yahola.
Aside from other deriding inklings that were assumed, growing up in Prasea,
one heard many legends about Praseans descending from beings from another planet,
and about an ancient Prasean civilization. Studies point to speculation, although there is
no solid evidence to support it, that Praceans came from a civilization preceding a meteor
collision that completely submerged them. According to well analyzed research conducted,
Praseans managed to subsist inside the volcano for centuries, and when a subsequent
galaxial collision occurred hundreds of years later, Praseans surfaced, and since they had
disappeared and were forgotten for centuries, upon their reappearance, it was assumed
that they had just landed from another planet.
