It's on the eastern side of the Berlenda mountains, that divide Hethon from the Virdee. We could say that it's on the low-middle level on the danger scale. It goes worse as you go deeper into the mountains, because of the great number of humanoids, but there isn't that much of danger where you are. Some wandering humanoids, wild beasts, wolfs and boards. Dire animals are not too uncommon, but there is little nature spirits activity. We are by no way near the absurd level of nastiness that certain forests present. In other places of Anarenn, a forest can engulf an entire army and never release them again.As I said, there are some treants speaking Sylvan. Also, you have some books in your cave, that are most certainly written in draconic: their letters make your blood tickle. However, as there was no one to teach you, you can't read or speak draconic.And no, common in not free, however most people in the world spend the two skill points necessary to learn it. So you have Sylvan, and tree bonus languages. Should you decide to pick them now, those available are Common, Hethon, Halfling and Dwarf.You know several people living in the forest: mainly small families of human peasants. The closer is less than 1 mile from your home, but you are fairly certain that they could never find it: it's extremely well hidden, on a high ground. They would have to climb several trees, and then a nasty slope to even manage to see it. The family is composed by Etheryl, his wife Shereena, and their daughters Shiri (16 years) and Danee (4 years). They also have a son, Ibranden, who is an apprentice to the blacksmith in Eruin, the nearest village.The village is 600m from the forest, and it is mostly agricular. As you are in the west-northern part of Hethon, you are not on the commercial routes that go from the major cities to the south. There are almost 300 humans in the village and the surrounding farms.The real interesting town however is Adarje, a big town 10 miles to the east. There should be at least 6000 humans there, with a local garrison of the king's army, and a little chapterhouse of church's soldiers. It is on a big road that goes from the south to the north, so there is greater trading there. You have never been there, though: only seen in from a far distance.There is no soldier in Eruin, however there's the local militia, and there are mounted soldiers that everyday come from Adarje. I was thinking about starting the IC thread tomorrow, if that's ok with you.I should have no problem in posting once, maybe twice per day, but I have an erratic access to the computer. So I may post and then be unavailable for 7 hour. Ah, and you need a name, I suppose <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
