Northern Janost Forest

The forest is covered with large, densely growing trees. But below the canopy lies a fog of deceit and mistrust amongst the people in the region. Mysterious sightings of half-breed dragons have been reported, so look to the skies and beware of an ambush. Perhaps you will also learn a little about the famed, Great Banishment, that took place over one thousand years ago. King Callaway of Dalanis is putting his faith in you to investigate these serious matters.

You as adventurers must also help uncover the mystery of the dragon half-breeds in the ancient conflict between two sworn enemies - the Elves of Jyr’na and the Beastmen of Angren. On one side stand the Degenerated Elves, long since corrupted by a dark energy they had hoped to subdue. On the other side stand the Angren who are fighting for the survival of their people as the Elves are sucking the life power from their home land – the Northern Janost Forest.
