Norsca
Norsca is a land of wild forest, ice capped mountains and stunning fjords. It lies on the north west coast of Irona bordering The Winterwood and extending into the World's Edge Mountains.
In Norsca most civilisation you will come across is in the form of small villages dotting the coast but a few are large enough to be considered towns. Of these, Wolfsbane is the largest and most powerful, rivalling the culture and politics of more civilised cities.
Localized Phenomena
Its said that the land of Norsca is blessed by Auril
, one of the few places the ice queen is worshiped rather than appeased. As a gift to her favoured few, it is said that in the dark nights of winter when the wind howls in the mountains it forms a beautiful sorrowful song, and that the ice glows through shades of blue and purple and green. Though I did not manage to see this with mine own eyes, those that spoke of it did so with such reverence and emotion that I would be hard pressed to call them liar.
Fauna & Flora
Pine, spruce and fir dominate the ecosystem of the Norsca and within them and within them birds sing, pine martins hop from branch to branch and small deer search the forest floor. Unlike The Winterwood, the forest is not oppressive and dark and large glades and valleys are common where great herds of elk trample the frosted ground underhoof.
