Description:
Once it was a peaceful forest town. A place where elves dwelt and sang to the trees, making them grow tall and strong. They worked their magics, creating things of wonder, and raised their dwellings in harmony with the wood around them. But as idyllic as it seemed, something dark was already at work below them. It lurked in the low places, warping the other creatures of the wood by bargain or by design. In time the trees themselves seemed to resent the elves and their town. The elves heard the dark whispers and sensed the twisting nature of the wood around them and held a council to determine a course of action. It was too late. From the dark places the evil rose and laid the town bare, killing everyone within. A last-minute effort by the leader of the elves sealed the most powerful of their works in an ancient vault. Some say it waits there today, still undisturbed by the evil forces that wait in the ruined shell of the town. One man from Riverton even ventured into the woods seeking it, only to return broken and haunted. To this day, it is said, he sits alone rocking before his hearth, shivering on even the warmest of days, his eyes burning with hatred for the memories they can't escape. If asked he will only mutter the same words, over and over: "God, I hate spiders!" Please see ANNOUNCEMENT 506 for the full story of this zone.
