Savalirwood

Description
The south Savalirwood is almost beautiful, but it has an almost decaying sense to its meeting between grey and purple. It seems deprived of life but not of wildlife, with some of which it has a symbiotic relationship. It is dangerous, and the deeper in, the more dangerous it gets. When Caduceus sees his Light spell's brightness gradually diminished in the King's Cage, he recalls that a similar phenomenon happens in the depths of the Savalirwood.

History
The has been cursed for many centuries. The superstition and mythology around it has allowed the city of Shadycreek Run to prevent the Dwendalian Empire's encroachment by using it as a defensive position against incursions. Eventually the Empire just gave up, and let the region stay independent.
