THEME

My my... so you found the sanctuary. The forest must like you. Worry not, it’s quite safe here. There’s the odd spirit, but most of the creatures here wandered in just like you. Feel free to find yourself a bed and a warm meal, take a look at the traveling merchants’ curious wares, and prepare for the journey back home. Or, like me, you can let yourself be lost to the outside world, and indulge in this strange and beautiful place. Join the parties that thrum in the night, listen to the spirits speaking in the fire, and become a part of the patchwork of souls that give this place meaning.
