Refuge Woods

The refuge woods is a large forest starting around the crystal peaks and extending in all directions. It contains some of the characteristics of the crystal peaks in being a well illuminated due to the crystal veins embedded in the ground but there are few crystals beside those once you leave the mountains. It is impossible to tell wether it is by the power of Li'sin ar, Li'tenar, or Li'li'kar but forest does seem to keep away corruption of any kind. Many legends tell of cursed or diseased people finding release in the woods thus giving them their name.

Fauna & Flora

This forest houses few dangerous or exotic plants but the rich soil as well as the light from the crystal peaks keeps it in an ever blooming state giving food and homes to many animals. As such sometimes the animals can reach gigantic sizes with some of them being as large as a dragon. Despite this the animals are generally herbivores with very few of them being aggressive or territorial since there is no lack of food. While they do not detect as magic, several of the exotic fruits from the forest are said to ward of and cure curses. Particularly the plumefruit, a large, round, purple fruit has been the subject of much study and research although none have given conclusive evidence. Despite this it is viewed as a precious and rare commodity when found and typically sells for large amounts of money with some rich people using them as decoration to show of their wealth.
