Westwood

This huge deciduous forest covers The West's southern-cerntral portion.

Geography
In the centre of the forest, old Mt. Renegal lies low and rounded by time. Many streams and rivers mark the mountainside, most heading south to the Tepid Marsh, but, notably, the Cyan River flows through Westwood from Hansland to the north on its way to Highcrest Harbour and the Iopian Strait. To the west, the forest is cut off abruptly by the Drybog, to the east, it opens into the farmland and plains of The Golden Coast.

Population and Settlements
In times long forgotten, Westwood was the realm of the wood elves, whose great forest cities have been lost to the millennia. It is said their last remaining city is hidden still beneath its boughs. Atop Mt Renegal is where the few halflings who decide to settle down have made their home in Bellamonta. In The Emerald Vale, east of the mountain, the elves use the Cyan River to trade fruit from their orchards with the ports on the coast, and the Emerald Tower of the sorcerer Zrith can be seen above the canopy of the wood from many places.

Westwood is the known roost of many dragons, primarily black and green, most notably "Mama" Lothtor, whose lair is located in the southeast, near where the Tepid Marsh begins.
