Labyrinth Forest

It is argued that the forest itself is alive. Either the forest is alive or the spell that controls it is exceedingly complex, and some find this notion of such intricate and complete spell mastery to be frightening.

There is no permanent path in this twisting maze of a forest. There is some legend that says there is a cipher to the forest, some method to the madness that would allow one to crack the proverbial code and trace their way out of the forest's grasp with ease. This cipher is not one that can be logically or intuitively reached. It is guarded and handed down through the generations of a family of Satyrs, the only family alleged to know the secrets of the Labyrinth forest.

Another legend has it set down that there is a baleful specter that has decided to make the dead-center of the forest its home. It is said that this specter's malignant presence is what so causes the brittle branches to sway when there is no wind, and is the sole cause of the twisting pathways.

Though it is not necessarily impossible to make it out alive, it is nonetheless extremely difficult. Some hapless fools have managed to stumble into the waiting grasp of the Labyrinth forest only to miraculously find their way out not an hour later. Miraculous is the right word to use, as such cases are extraordinarily rare and almost always the product of fortune and mere happenstance. Others have come fully prepared, mind steeled against the insanity to be found here and packs full of useful gear and provision, only to spend the rest of their lives locked behind the trees.

This forest is a secret tomb to many.

Due to the constantly shifting, ever intricate nature of the Labyrinth Forest, it is also a hot spot for those who have something to hide that they never want found.
