Primeweald
The great forest of Meliora beneath Twilight Peak, home to elves and trolls, overrun by Umbra and the Unlit in the Dark Times.
- Dark Times
Description
The Primeweald is the forested region of Meliora that stretches towards Twilight Peak: a land of elven villages and towers, burned ravines, a lake turned upside down and troll-haunted swamps. Even at the onset of apocalypse Aurelius found it scenic, though he had never had much chance to explore it before.
Historical context
After the Gloaming the drones of Umbra overran almost all of the Primeweald. Wells ran dry and whole regions fell out of balance, while the Unlit raised crude constructions over intricate elven stonework. The stranger crossed it from end to end on the long trek to Twilight Peak, claiming its element cores along the way.
