Appalachia Range
The Appalachians are not tall but enduring - ancient ridges worn to wisdom. Their forests roll like green waves across the eastern continent, each valley a microcosm of resilience. Mist gathers in hollows each dawn, softening the line between mountain and sky.
In lore, Appalachia is the “gentle range,” symbol of restoration after excess. Once mined and scarred, its slopes were healed through cooperative reforestation projects that blended science and folk stewardship.
Today, its trails host pilgrims of craft and song - poets, herbalists, musicians keeping the old harmonies alive. The mountains teach continuity through modesty: greatness measured not in height but in endurance.
