Forest of Drinn

The Forest of Drinn was a vast woodland found in the west of the Whispy Woods, just south of the Phoenix Mountains. It spread from the east of the Whispy Woods to the southeast.

Geography
In the lowlands of Drinn, a winding corridor of thick undergrowth slowed travel, and rows of thickets with brambles and vines impeded progress. In the southwestern portion of the woods, the ground dipped in places into protected hollows, and brooks ran through rowan stands. Continuing southward, the trees thinned into wide, rolling meadows and widespread wheat fields.

In the uplands of Drinn, the trees broke away to reveal stony slopes and sheer faces of jagged cliffs. Narrow, pebble-strewn trails ran above several deep gorges. These trails bent downward toward a shallow basin beset with scrub and pines, from which the baleful crags of Mount Dragon could be seen, south of the Great Trident. West of that look-out spot, the forest opened into hills with tall clumps of grass, fallen tree trunks, withered branches and shallow pools amidst a bed of muddy banks. Still farther west, firs arose among the sparse alders, and the forest thinned to a point where Monterria could no longer be seen.
