Witchwood

The forest now known as the Witchwood, to the east of the Feylands, was once the peaceful home of many halflings. During the Second War of Fate the forest halflings harried the progress of the armies of Delrox and the undead forces of Hallacaster. Hellacaster punished them in later years by conjuring perpetual dark clouds over the forest so that it became a haven for the living dead and all who detest the sunlight.

Witchwood was once home to an ancient grove where druids and servants of nature congregated to lead the fight against the forces of Wesmoon, they fell eventually, but it was rumoured that a particulary effective group, known as the Witchwood Avengers, was born from the survivors.

The halflings of the villages of Slidramet and Hapamet in the Witchwood held out for centuries against the legions of undead that threated their woodland homes. The halflings of Slidramet continued to wage war, though they were increasingly isolated as the inhabitants of Hapamet evacuated their village and let it fall to ruin some years ago. Settlers from Witchwood were the founders of a halfling colony in the Underlake called New Neptamet, they were joined there by some Rhodani halflings, and others from the great city states across the world (for there are halflings to be found in most major cities). Veldex and Sorn are popular with the Witchwood halflings.

During thier ongoing problems with the Church of the Shroud, the Knights of Magilone moved their headquarters to the Temple of Veldex in the halfling village of Hapamet, this was abandoned when Hapamet was abandoned.
