Dim Woods

The Dim Wood is a thick wooded area located southeast of Northcrest. This wood is often considered cursed by a druid during the Great War. As the story goes, the retreating young race armies, looking for refuge, attempted to hide within the Dim Woods but were stopped by a sect of druids that guarded the forest. Knowing that the army would only bring conflict and destruction to the woods, the sect leader barred entry. The army commander instead attacked the sect killing them all and hiding in the woods. With his dying breath the druid leader placed a curse on the army, saying “Your bones will find no rest here.” That night the army disappeared without a trace. To this day the Dim Woods are considered cursed, and rumors circulate that late some nights you can hear the tired groans and clattering of bones as the army still searches for rest. The Dim Wood is also famed for its Ironwood, an extremely hard wood that is used in many enchantments and druid rituals.
