Regions of Liathaven

Overview

Liathaven is the ancient western forest between the mountains of Kahraman and Bregasland of the Marches.

Recent History

The Empire lost control of it in 349AE to an incursion of barbarian orcs from the West, who swarmed through the woods avoiding the Vallorn and seized the Navarri settlements. It is not known whether the orcs are coexisting with the Vallorn, but Liathaven is now a direct threat to Empire, as evidenced by the orcs using it as a staging post to launch their invasion of Mournwold in the same year.

Major Features

Liaven's Dance

Woven between the trees of Liaven's Glen is The Dance; a network of earthen trails marked in the grass and the trees, several miles wide, worn into the ground with the footfall of centuries. The Navarr say that it is a symbol for the Great Dance writ large on the earth. Some from Urizen believe that dancing Liaven’s Dance could grant humans a greater understanding the path of the soul through the Labyrinth of Ages. The steading of Liaven’s Dance was ancient, dating back to the earliest days after the Vallorn emerged. The fact that it is now in the hands of the Jotun barbarians marks a terrible loss for the Navarr.
