Evercana Mire
Geography
Evercana Mire is a swamp basin with multiple rivers coursing through it. At the center lies a large lake, into which the River Melor drains. Rivers run oddly in the Mire, skirting around some areas, flooding others, and branching off into small streams that seem to disappear. The locals blame an ancient magical conflict, but such claims have yet to be researched thoroughly enough to say for certain.
Regardless of the odd habits of the water, the Mire is full of it. Most roads are little more than lines of mud and precarious wooden slats, although some are magically drained to allow trade to the area. Locals primarily move by boat as the more reliable mode of transportation.
Fauna & Flora
The swamps, bogs, and various waterlogged wetland areas of the Mire are teeming with life, both plant and animal. More diversity is found here than anywhere else in Raylea, with the possible exception of the Silver Gardens to the southeast. Many medicinal plants grow wild here, including the elusive primary ingredient of the concoction known as a Healing Potion. Many dangerous plants and animals dwell here as well; poisons both animal and plant in nature are in abundance. Local guides recommend to forage with extreme caution, and if in doubt, to throw it out.
