The sprawling oaks and mightly elms of Celadon
grow from the edge of the Duntide to lap
over the rolling
hummocks of the Abbor-Alz.Yew and ash trees
older than memory grow from the Gnatmarsh
northward
to Nellix Town and the Franz River. Within
the precincts of these ancient trees roam many Sylvan
Elves and Treants,
for the forest of Celdadon is virtually
a realm apart. The woodland is pierced
by the
Nesser, a third of the area being in
the territory of the
Duchy of Urnst, and the balance within
the
Kingdom
of Nyrond, but neither state cuts timber or
otherwise
disturbs the natural balance of the forest, except to
hunt. The inhabitants of the region include some
humans, hunters, woodsmen, and the like
who dwell
in harmony with their environment. Both sovereigns
expect that the inhabitants will loyally serve, and they
do so by guarding the forest ways from invasion by
raiders or hostile creatures coming up from the hills
or marshlands to the south and using the timber as
cover. Although many fierce creatures and some outlaws
and humanoids will be encountered in the
Celadon from time to time, it is not a healthy place
for their ilk. Waterborne raiders are the worst problem,
but the Duke sends patrols along the Nesser
to
aid the warders. Contingents of archers and light
infantry are raised from the forest in times of war.
