Weirdling Forest

East of the confluence of the Lenggor and the Ular, hard up against the Kulgera Ridge, is an area different from the rest of the Mengamuk. It is a center of power for the Green Lady, Who Loves Trees, and the Ancient Boy, Who Leads the Hunt. It has not always been so — the tales of the ancestors tell of a time when the River Peoples lived here in peace — but for many centuries now the fey have dominated this area.
The small fey may be annoyances, or even allies; usually they can be propitiated by gifts of bread, honey, or fermented fruit juices. Some are evil and must be warded off by protective hexes, so each house has woven signs above the door, and villages place them in rock around their fences. The great fey, though, are capricious, and dangerous in their uncaring. Those who wish to gain their favor must offer sumptuous gifts. The great spirits are not be impressed with a little food or drink; a banquet might be the least thing that could hope to win their approval. One reason the River Peoples need to trade with outsiders is to gain gifts lavish enough to draw the attention of the ancient fey.
