Grammat Woods
Sometimes referred to as The Scribe Woods, Grammat Woods is a thickly overgrown ancient forest full of elm, breech, felsul, and hiexel trees. The forest has a rugged landscape with many stream-cut ravines shaded by tall specimens of beech, elm, and white pine.
Unlike the cliffs to the north, the shoreline appears to be a logical location for a ship to moor and send small boats to shore for water and supplies. In practice however only the unknowing or desperate would dare take the chance on running into the wood's population of giant spiders, quicklings, satyrs, stirges, korreds, hangman trees, and other uncommon creatures of various cautionary tales told to children throughout the region warning them never to go into the woods alone.
Another campfire story involves a sage, called the scribe, from nearby Mythlore Keep who was so convinced Grammat Woods contained portals to other parts of the cosmos he headed into the forest with a full retinue of followers to never be heard from again.
Not merely the stuff of tales, at one point in the history of Grammat Woods, it served as the base of operations of the Red Hand Marauders. It housed their main base, Drellinfell Manor and its necromantic Clocktower of Shadows. Those who have returned from the woods have confirmed that at least some of the cautionary tales are true including being home to a huge spider's nest, a cave of wyverns and an ancient tree carved out to be a home making the woods known to be full of beasts, monsters, and vicious fey, causing most folks to simply avoid the forest.
