The trees | The trees in the World Tree forest are unimaginably tall and vast.<ref name=":1" /> Many creatures live in the World Tree Forest, including giant spiders, large predatory squirrels with multi-faceted eyes of flesh, the giant immortal Lord Rabbit, a Titan, Dryads, and Nama.<ref name=":2" /> In a particular peaceful part of the forest, an undisturbed sanctuary, three Arthur Pendragons at various ages are gathered around the sword in the stone.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/12/23/solstice-pt-7/ Solstice Pt. 7]</ref> | ||

Past the outer realms of the forest and the ruined city, there exist many "plots" of land next to each other, brought by the refugees from different old worlds. One such is an ancient, medieval farmhouse and fields of wheat lay in a meadow, overlooked by a Treant on a hill | Past the outer realms of the forest and the ruined city, there exist many "plots" of land next to each other, brought by the refugees from different old worlds.
