Wise Woods

A magical forest full of Fey, Druids, Rangers, beasts, strange plants, among other magical creatures and phenomenon. Due to the various chaotic fey within, it is often called the "Whimsical Woods".   Tales say that the Elves emerged from the Feywild in the Wise Woods and were the first civilized species to walk Terremondi. They spread out across the continent, favoring the more beautiful scenery on the Southeastern side and the area around the magical woods.   After millenia of living off the land, Humans and Dwarves arrived, seeking to profit off the land and take for themselves. Some of the Elves wanted to share the island with the newcomers, but others wanted to fight back and get rid of them to cleanse their land. This group of of Elves took up practice of dark magic, forever tainting the northern portion of the magical forrest, turning it into Gloom Hollow.   *Explain the civil war between the dark, wood and high elves and how it led to the current wise woods, gloom hallow, and elven civilization (name this).   During these conflicts the elves of the Wise Woods put enchantments in place that gave all good aligned creatures +2 to all rolls using mental attributes, and all evel aligned creatures -1 to those rolls. A side effect was that it made blue crystals rise from the ground in sporadic locations.       It is home to the world tree, which the druids seem to worship and care for. Most on the outside have heard of the tree, but aren't quite sure why it's so important.   On the Northern end, the Wise Woods gets darker, turning into Gloom Hollow.
