Forest of Eternal Spring


 * The Great Forest (also known as the Elven Dominion, or more formally as The Forest of Eternal Spring), is a giant, perpetually warm forest that occupies the entirety of the Northeast and a large portion of the central northern continent. Kept in a state of constant springtime by ancient magic, the forest is host to a wide range of flora and fauna unseen anywhere else in the world, making this a prime location for druids and alchemists. Governed primarily by the Elves, the Forest is nonetheless home to many other intelligent races, such as Gnomes and Firbolgs. Secretive and exclusive, the Elves keep a tight inner border and do not allow outsiders to enter the deep forest, for both the safety of the travelers and themselves; the forest is enormous and extremely difficult to navigate without proper preparation and knowledge. This does not prevent all outsiders from entering, however, and many hunters and explorers lose themselves in the Forest forever, tempted by Fairy magic or consumed by any of the predatory species in the area.


 * Because of the secretive nature of the Elves, few know of the true locations of any major Elven cities, and even fewer maps exist; the Elves, less mortal than Humans and possessing significantly longer lifespans, instead memorize the locations for their convenience and security. Not all Elves are sworn to secrecy, however, and there are those that are willing to part with maps or directions for a price. It is common knowledge that three Elven cities exist, and a chart of these cities can be found below.
