Interestingly enough, most of the animal names in this zone (Helicid, Cervid, Bufonid, Annelid, Vombata etc.) refer to the Latin names of the families, orders, phyla and genera of their real-life counterparts.
I'm a naturally inquisitive person, so I enjoy flying to the very edge and exploring the boundaries of a new zone. I've flown to and (tried) to explore the large grey, rocky islands west of Exile's Hollow and the Path of Inception; you can't really get onto them, just beside them, due to an invisible wall around the perimeter of the islands. I didn't see anything on the islands though; it's just jagged columns like you see in the Resonant Peaks near Zovaal's Grasp in the north.
What is cool, though, is that it actually turns to nighttime when you fly that far out! It's a starry sky with a moon, instead of the perpetually-daytime and (absolutely awesome) fractal-laced sky we've been seeing since the patch.
Just be careful though; sometimes when I go exploring the boundaries of zones, the game really doesn't like it... and it will just disconnect me. This can become a problem if the game is REALLY mad at you, and you are stuck in a DC-loop. That's happened to me once or twice, and it's an absolute pain.
Also, I think getting disconnected just now from my exploration actually somehow removed the last macro I just made, for fishing... weird.
Have fun exploring (even more) now that flying's out! :D
