The River Heart
Deep within the Eltawin Forest, close to the merging of the Eltawin River and the Rodewin River, a dark deep woods awaits travellers, once home to the dark elves the area has long since been abandoned. Within the River Heart, dark magic still prevails and even the very trees seem to hunt those within its depths.
Geography
Huge evergreens snuff out the sun in this river valley, ancient ruins and shrines dot the landscape, overgrown and crumbling. the earth is soft and patches of bog are but one of the dangers of the region.
Fauna & Flora
Close to the heart of the forest, the trees reach high into the sky, below, deep within the shadows predators like wolves, bears, drakes and even owlbears and dragon hunt the twisting paths. Other more sinister creatures also lurk here including blighted trees and plants, undead of lost souls and the remnants of evil left by the dark elves and their allies and in more recent times remnants of the Pale Wars.
History
Once this area was the home to a large tribe of dark elves, orcs and goblinoids. They were hunted and expelled by the empire of the sands and elves long before the empires fall. The dark magics that prevail have prevented others from claiming the ruins and is now empty of intelligent life.
