The Thorn

In the Runiverse

The Thorn is located in the central part of the known Runiverse. It is part of the trio of forests located in the central Runiverse, the other two being The Fey and Hedge Wizard Wood.

The Southeast reaches of the Forests of the Wild, below the Fey, sit the Thorn. A place of darkness, fog, and an ominous cold presence that can only be felt deep in the bones. The trees are black, twisted, and gnarled, any many are covered in an unreasonable amount of thorns. In stark contrast to Hedge Wizard Wood, the natural world of the Thorn seems to have turned against the people of the Runiverse, and danger sits behind every blackened tree, waiting to grab lone travelers. The air is damp and heavy, and every rustling leaf sends dread into the hearts of those who dare enter. An eerie silence pervades, though an occasional distant moan, a mewling wolf, or screeching terror of some poor beast in pain, punctuates the horrible silence. The songs of birds have not been heard in the forest for ages. Though this place has a foreboding reputation, there are some who claim these horrors are wildly exaggerated, and the Thorn is largely harmless. The Goblins of Goblintown in the south come here often to hunt and gather wood. In fact the wood from the Thorn is highly prized for it's durability, and is often used for tools and weapons.
