The Winterlands

The Winterlands is northernmost region of the Whispy Woods, far beyond modern society. The Shivering Mountains and several large lakes separate them from the Howling Forest.

Geography
The Winterlands is a bleak and forbidding place, bereft of all trappings of civilization. It is permanently locked in winter and perpetually frozen. The land is mostly unexplored, as very few who have ventured so far north have ever lived to tell about it, if only due to the deathly cold temperatures.

The White Waste encompasses much of the Winterlands. Massive frozen glaciers are a common sight, particularly in the arctic climes of the northernmost parts of the region. Its barren and windswept expanses are broken only by jutting outcrops of jagged blue rock. Slow-moving rivers, their waters sluggish and black, crisscross the fields, carving elaborate canyons and deep ravines in the frozen ground. Further south, the thin soil is more fertile, allowing sparse pine forests to grow.
