The High Forest

A broad, meandering river, its banks bordered by lush underbrush, tall reeds, flowering bushes, and often dotted with floating algae, creating a vibrant green layer. The river flows gently through sinuous paths, creating tranquil pools and lively rapids alike. Dense forest canopies drape over the water, casting dappled light and creating serene, reflective surfaces that mirror the verdant greens and sky blues. Local fauna, including a variety of birds, fish, and amphibians, thrive in these rich habitats, supported by the slow-moving, nutrient-rich waters. Well-trodden paths indicate the presence of wood elves and druids who maintain this natural corridor. The river's dynamic sections, from its deep, slow pools to briskly flowing stretches over a pebbled bed, contribute to its ecological richness and aesthetic charm, making it a vital and picturesque part of the High Forest.
