The Royal Timberlands

The Royal Timberlands stand as a sprawling and enchanting expanse, a realm where nature's grandeur dances in harmony with mystical wonders and mythical beings. Contained within the borders of Ayenin This vast fantasy forest is renowned across the realms as a place of both breathtaking beauty and perilous treachery, where the ethereal and the wild converge in a primeval forest. Encompassing mountains, valleys, rivers, and dense thickets, The Royal Timberlands are home to an array of fantasy races, each carving their existence amidst the verdant embrace. Elven treetop villages sway on the winds, their elegant architecture woven seamlessly into the towering trees. Nomadic tribes of centaurs traverse the open meadows, embodying the spirit of freedom, while enigmatic dryads, guardians of the forest, shimmer like dappled sunlight as they watch over their sacred groves. Amidst the shadows and sunlit glades, creatures of both beauty and terror roam. Graceful winged unicorns are rumored to roam the meadows, their silver coats glinting in the dappled light, while colossal treants, ancient protectors of the forest, lumber through the depths with the wisdom of ages etched in their bark. Sly and elusive kitsune play tricks on those who wander too far from the path, their cunning mirages leading travelers astray. The haunting calls of phoenix-like firebirds pierce the air, their feathers ablaze with vibrant colors that light up the twilight hours. Yet, danger lurks in every thicket. The shadowy undergrowth conceals massive spiders with venomous bites, and lurking in the rivers are water nymphs whose beauty belies their deadly intentions. Fierce and territorial griffins nest upon the craggy cliffs, goblinoid clans and Goliaths menace from the northern mountains. Magical anomalies can twist reality, causing the very landscape to shift or giving birth to mysterious portals that connect to distant realms.   As for the human settlements within The Royal Timberlands, they exist as brave outposts and frontier towns, and contained elven tribal confederacy. Monarchs and nobles from distant lands often send emissaries to partake in the forest's mystical offerings, hoping to secure alliances with the beings that inhabit these lands. Queen Salmina deemed the timberlands protected and the deforestation of previous monarchs is now heavily regulated and controlled. This won the support and love of the elves, brownies, and other socially minded races of the timberlands.
