Geography
The Raven Lands consist of plains, forests, rivers and lakes primarily. The signature characteristic of the Raven Lands is the dreary color of the flora. Greys, violets, blacks and dark blues are the most common colors to be found. Another trait of the region are these constant rolling clouds of fog and mist. These thick clouds are said to be home to some of the most vile creatures that walk Altheria.
Densely packed forests of these drab colors create almost midnight conditions during mid-day.
The flats fields typically consist of tall grass that rises up to about chest height on the average person.
The land is believed to have taken on these qualities due to the natural malevolent Ziel that exists in the area. It seeping into the existing life in the area has twisted it into dark and unnatural things.
Fauna & Flora
Even the most mundane animals that live in the region are considered much more aggressive and altered than their counterparts. Unnatural creatures are a common sight here. The twisted creatures and animals stalk the forests and fields, hunting whatever they could find.
It takes a specialist of the highest caliber to be able to survive for extended periods of times outside of the walls of any civilization that dares to exist.
The flora here is aggressive and similar in nature to many of the plants that can be found in Enithe. Any careless traveler could make for a simple and quick meal for a hungry plant.
Natural Resources
The Raven Land is home to typical resources such as wood, minerals, water and various animals. In terms of value for exporting most of the kingdoms and towns that exist outside of Stelliah refuse to buy materials from Stelliah. As they want to avoid the naturally demented resources of the Raven Lands. The inhabitants of the area instead must make due with these resources and any exports that they purchase from merchants attempting to hastily make their way through the region.
