The Northern Shelf
As explorers set foot on the newly found continent, they immediately noticed the vast expanse of plains that stretched out before them. The grasses here were tall and lush, swaying gently in the breeze, creating an almost hypnotic effect. The plains were mostly flat, but there were occasional small hills that rose up, offering stunning vistas of the surrounding landscape.
As the explorers traveled further inland, they began to encounter large forests, consisting primarily of deciduous trees. The trees towered high into the sky, with their thick trunks and sprawling branches creating a dense canopy overhead that blocked out much of the sunlight. The forest floor was covered in a thick layer of fallen leaves, twigs, and moss, making for soft footing.
Streams and rivers wound their way through the forest, providing water to a wide variety of plants and animals. The forests were home to a diverse range of wildlife, including deer, wolves, bears, and smaller creatures such as squirrels and rabbits.
As the explorers moved deeper into the forest, they discovered that there were many clearings where sunlight streamed down through gaps in the canopy. These clearings were filled with a variety of colorful wildflowers, and the air was thick with the scent of fresh vegetation.
Overall, the plains and forests of this newly discovered continent were awe-inspiring, offering a vast and diverse landscape that was teeming with life. It was a land ripe for exploration and discovery, and the explorers knew that there was still much more to uncover.
