Dallenvale
"When I look upon the green fields of Dallenvale, I can't help but think about what keeps the grass so green. They either shit on their lawns or pump magic into the soil because those fields are supernatural... There is another explanation, perhaps. I once heard that nature becomes happy when the people and creatures that live near it are happy. Or at least, that's what some ol' crooked druid told me...but, maybe there's some truth behind it. Can't remember the last time I met a Dalvalerian with a frown on his face." -Renowned Explorer & Historian Polluck Brewham.
