The
Silent Forest
A location in Krevborna
The Silent Forest is a deep woods of blackened, misshapen trees whose limbs resemble clawed, skeletal appendages. Unexplained voices emerge from deep within the forest, followed by long periods of absolute, ominous silence. Old burial grounds—their headstones cracked and the names upon them effaced by time and the depredations of nature—are slowly consumed by the green hell of the Silent Forest.
Entering the Silent Forest is forbidden by the Church. The Silent Forest suffers from a horrible curse; when night falls, the malign creatures within the woods grow stronger, faster, and more ravenous. The fog-shrouded burial grounds within the vast and disorienting Silent Forest are haunted by specters and serpentine cultists. Pagan tribes also live within the Silent Forest; each tribe is named for its totem animal—such as the Wolf, Raven, and Owl tribes. Each tribe maintains a crumbling tower of black stone within the Silent Forest. These towers were once the abode of witch queens and kings who now exist only as unliving shadows.
