Brumebonnet Bosk

A perpetually rainy and cloudy forest located in the southwestern corner of Orden.

Geography

Brumebonnet Bosk is the only true forest on Orden, which dwells in an Artesian Basin which covers much of Southwest Orden. The center of the basin is home to a large Artesian lake which is constantly filtered through the Cloudcap Sequoia, which even grow within the lake itself.
The forest floor is soft and mossy with a few outcroppings of stone scattered here and there.

Fauna & Flora

The forest is home to hundreds of species of insect, bird, amphibian, and small mammal that can't be found elsewhere on Orden and a few that can't be found elsewhere on Cultivo.
Of particular note are the Cloudcap Sequoia which can only grow in the Bosk. These trees have sensitive leaves which wither in direct sunlight, instead, special veins within the wood draw water up from the saturated ground and emit it from the canopy as clouds, which cling to the trees and weaken the sunlight.

Natural Resources

The wood of the Cloudcap Sequoia is highly valuable, as only a dozen or so are allowed to be cut down every year. In addition, the water from the lake is prized for its natural purity and is said to have holistic healing properties.
