The
great forests of the Unknown Lands are in Monadh-Frith and
Telford. These forests are dense and difficult to travel.
It is said they are cursed, for many who go in are never seen
again.
This
terrain depicts various types of land. This includes grasses,
hills, lighters forests, swamplands, and rocky terrain. These
types of terrain are not significant and easy to travel over.
Writers are welcome to decide for themselves what type of
land they are crossing so long as it is not one of the more
significant land-types (great forests, water bodies, deserts,
and mountains).
The
mountain range that lines the west of the Unknown Lands is
high and perilous to cross. People coming from the lands beyond
may enter through Monadh-Frith or Telford, though the Frithi
are wary of intruders and have been known to kill those who
are deemed enemies. To cross through any other way is not
only perilous to those who are experienced, but deadly to
those who are not. It is rumoured that there are tribes who
inhabit the mountains and feed on those they capture.
The
plains of Nuall are flat and vast. Nomadic tribes can be found
throughout and are always more than happy to barter for goods.
Great herds of cattle, bison and horses can be seen, but be
careful. During the summer years, water is scarce, and the
Nuae known to charge a great price for even the smallest skin.
The
waters off of the Unknown Lands are deep and foreboding. During
the spring and autumn, the waters become fierce and crossing
treacherous. Rumours of sea serpents dwelling in the Cerulean
Sea are often told by sailors, and even some fisher folk claim
to have seen them closer inland when the fishing was good
and food abundant. Further east beyond the passes, few dare
to sail, for raiders from far off lands are always making
war with the islands.
