Fen of the Slain Unicorn
In a thickly wooded area of the Narlmarches lies the body of a slain unicorn. The creature bears no sign of physical injury other than the loss of its horn. After speaking with the tree spiders in the area Ryland learned that a powerful woman, beautiful and terrible slew the unicorn with a single spell by raising her finger and commanding it to die. She laid a powerful mark on the body of the unicorn, claiming it as her own trophy. The power of this mark has caused the body to remain uncorrupted as no living thing will come near it, touch it, or try and consume its body not even plants that feed on decomposing corpses. Don recognized this mark of claiming as being something done by exceptionally powerful fey as a form of trophy hunting, as well as sending a message to those who would oppose them.
This area is silent and reverent, to both honor the beauty of the lost unicorn and in fear of what slew her.
