Moorland
Beyond the Nearheath, the rest of Gavony is mostly desolate moors, littered with boulders and wrapped in perpetual mist. Few trees rise above the coarse grasses, bracken, shrubs, and violet heathergrasses that cover the land, and the landscape is dotted with boulders and standing rocks. Spectral wolves, wandering geists, and the monstrous creations of necromancers make the Moorlands far more dangerous than most of Gavony.
Villages are few and far between, so although the area of the Moorlands is much larger than the other four parishes combined, its population is the lowest of the parishes. In fact, there are more abandoned villages in the Moorlands than inhabited ones. Some storied and picturesque manors still exist here, abandoned by their formed owners. The area is rife with geists, many of them dangerous, and travelers are constantly at risk from them as well as other things that wander the countryside.
