Vohven Jungle

The Izhoven River descends from the high plains of northern Zazahni, draining the savanna into a vast jungle, known to locals as the Emerald Sea. Early river navigators so named it because far upstream they could see the green of the vast rain forest off in the distance and believed it was the sea. Covering nearly 150,000 square miles, Vohven is a massive and largely uncharted wilderness. Human and humanoid tribesmen live there, in great numbers, along with all sorts of wild beasts. Tribes of intelligent vegetable creatures also inhabit an area of the jungle.
What mysteries does the Vohven hold? What terrors hunt humanoid flesh in the shadows of the great trees? Why is it after so many wars that the Vohven stands as one of the last bastions of the true wilderness? Historically, the Vohven has always proved to be a foreboding stretch of jungle, occupying half of all Svimohzia. The earliest human civilization flourished under the canopies of this massive jungle and failed with equal regularity. From the heart of this awful den of pestilence, predators and death is said to have emerged the great Serpent Empire, a sprawling culture that once enslaved the first races of humanity. Moreover, it was there that it fell, overthrown by the lowliest of its slaves. There is no official history of the jungle, just a collection of speculations and testimonies of those forced to venture within. The monarchs of the isle are content to leave it as it is, to let sleeping terrors lie undisturbed, and to pretend it does not exist at all.
