Tahōhya Forest
Tahōhya forest is a vast region of temperate and subtropical forest bordering Nīwulā Valley to the north and the World Spine Mountains to the west. In the east, wet forest turns to twisty swathes of mangrove, creating a lacy and broken coastline, while in the south land narrows to a long peninsula - the southernmost tip of the continent.
Geography
Tahōhya forest is among the largest areas of continuous woodland in the known world. The region's northern and western reaches are considerably more dry compared to the eastern and southern parts, where swamps and wet forest become more prevalent.
Streams of water roll down the hilly landscape from the rocky sides of the World Mountains. While the altitude near the mountains rises drastically, the slopes even out far away from the coast. In-between hills rise and fall beneath the cover of wild and untouched forest and the undergrowth.
Fauna & Flora
The region is dominated by insects and amphibious wildlife, with various species of birds thriving in the forest canopy. Many species of water snakes, related to the river snakes of Nīwulā Valley, inhabit the coastal regions with a particular fondness for the mangrove swamps, where they are known to nest.
