The Blind Forest of Yx'Maja

Type: Area
Zone: The Rak'tika Greatwood
(Norvrandt)

“

Encompassing the eastern reaches of the Greatwood, this band of forest is named for Yx'Maja, the Ronkan goddess of beauty and the hunt. It is believed that she taught the Viis their hunting skills, and their people have thus protected her sacred lands since time immemorial.

Landmarks

Bowrest

Lying some distance outside of Fanow, this camp has become a permanent fixture for the hunters who patrol the woods. Some prefer to sleep here rather than the village, often camping out in the wild for months at a time.

The Wild Fete

In a corner of the forest to the east of Slitherbough can be seen a path of brilliant blue flowers. Believed to be the footfalls of the goddess as she stalked her prey through the woods, the Viis call these floral trails the Steps of Maja.

Mjrl's Regret

Tales tell of a heartbroken Viis who, for reasons unknown, chose to leave her village behind. Standing before the caves and full of sorrow for her lost home, the tears she shed became the river which now crosses the woods from Lozatl's Conquest to this lonely drop downstream.
