Swamps, Fens, & Mires[edit]
Dire Fens[edit]
A massive swamp that forms the southern border of Athervon and the northern border of Ivepia; an evil place that is avoided if at all possible – but few venture in, and even fewer return. To the east, the Fens spill out into the waters of the Bay of Oerni; on the west, they end in the rising foothills and peaks of the Iron Mountains.

Bloodthorne Forest[edit]
A no-mans land between civilization and the terrors of the Dire Fens, The Bloodthorne Forest is infamous for being infested with dangerous Blood Ravens, which will attack humans if hungry. It is a place most avoid if at all possible.
Mistwood[edit]
A small forest outside of Avis Armois in Athervon, Mistwood has few roads through it, and it sees few travellers - most of which are patrols from the city and the Kingdom of Athervon. The Blackwater River forms the boundary between the unnerving but generally safe Mistwood, and the dangerous and wild Bloodthorne Forest. The small village of Abateurs and the fortified tower of Navro are found at the Blackwater delta - a beleaguered outpost on the edge of the wilds.

Aumine[edit]
the Aumine river is one of the largest waterways that reaches deep into the northern and western reaches of the Kingdom of Athervon, including the natural resources from mining, forests, and farms. Its source is in the peaks of the Iron Mountains that form the western boarder of the Kingdom, and it empties into the Bay of Oerni. The town of Belis-ar-Weil has grown around the mouth of the river and does a brisk trade moving goods from river transport to ocean-going vessels.
Islands & Archipeligos[edit]
The Forbidden Isles[edit]
A string of tropical, heavily forested islands that are populated by a variety of creatures. Small human tribes; clans make their homes here, and due to their lack of large militaries and navies, they raided regularly by slavers.
