Valley of Gems
A valley located just South of Greenfall that despite being located in the middle of civilized lands, was hidden from Humanity for ages. It was not until 1843 that the valley was discovered. Located with in a mountain chain it was hard to get to, requiring climbing and hiking. After it was discovered a series of stairs and tunnels where built into the mountains to get to the valley. They are still quite long but much easier to get there then before.
The valley is a place of un told beauty. It is filled with flowers that bloom most of the year in bright vibrant colors leaning to the location's name. After its discovery it became a feature in many love poems around the world. Many romantic novels have been set in the valley and flowers from the region have become synonymous with love and romance.
Early on a few people tried to use the location to make a profit by using the flowers to make dyes. The resulting dyes were quite vibrant and did indeed make those who sold them a profit. However, this was promptly put an end to by the nearby governments, seeing the value of the area to remain in its natural state. They set to work preserving the area and it soon became a popular as a tourist location, particularly for young couples. In Greenfall and the surrounding areas in particularly there is a custom of preposing in the valley. And there is a myth that anyone who is engaged in the valley will be happy together forever..
