Tmiwa
The Tmiwa are found only in the deepest recesses of the deep woods. They are the caretakers of the trees, friends of the spirits, and guardians of the forests. Wherever they appear in the pages of history, their presence outside the forests is made known only in whispers and fairy tales. However local myth and legend might portray them; the Gardeners are a quiet folk, and enjoy keeping to their lives among the trees. There is no recording of any Tmiwa traveling past the expanse of the youngest of trees at the outer edges of the furthest forests.
