Feya Tarn (Bulgarian: езеро Фея, romanized: ezero Feya, IPA: [ˈɛzɛro ˈfɛjɐ]) is the oval-shaped 65 m long in south–north direction and 60 m wide tarn on eastern Byers Peninsula, Livingston Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica. It has a surface area of 0.28 ha and drains northwards into Barclay Bay by way of Eridanus Stream.[1]

The feature is named after the mythical creatures in European folklore, Feya being the Bulgarian for Fay, Fairy.[1]

gollark: I could probably have it share code with a disassembler, too, although even the ISA-as-currently-implemented allows a bunch of obfuscatory tricks.

gollark: I'm considering implementing the assembler in JS or Python or Rust or something, but it *would* be nice to have this available from within potatOS.

gollark: Honestly that's entirely unnecessary and I would probably only need simple splitting into lines and label handling, but you know.

gollark: That's how you would do it in my thing, using a somewhat insane S-expression assembly-ish language.

gollark: Using hypothetical assembly syntax I haven't actually implemented:```# start of memory to add kittens to(add r1 r0 0x1000) # maybe there would be nice dedicated syntax for "set register" actually# end of kittenized region(add r2 r0 0x1600)(label loop (add r3 r0 40) (poke r3 r1 0) (add r3 r0 94) (poke r3 r1 1) # and so on (add r1 r1 8) (jlt r1 r2 loop))```
