Holindale

Kingdom of Holindale
The Kingdom of Holindale had remained a mystery for the freelands for a long time as the magical forest had denied access to any strangers for the good first few hundred years of world history. Eventually the elves' magic faded and the forest became known to the other kingdoms. The ancient forest spirits and tree guardians would still be patrolling the forests to scare away the enemies of nature.

Location
The kingdom of Holindale is located on the Eastern coast on the island of Torr, reachable by travelling through the vast forested areas of Igmar and Rug'lak to the west of Abrightis. Holindale is a kingdom founded by an ancient people that retreated there from the city of Abur thousands of years ago. It is an elven kingdom that has mostly kept its politics to its own from the other kingdoms, but trading openly with all. Holindale has a healthy market for magical goods and Elven weapons that its merchants sell to the Western kingdoms for great profit. The swamps to the West of Holindale are inhabited by the Sahuagin, who often attack the kingdom in the middle of the night to pillage for food and steal the new-born elven babies for their dark rituals held in their underground caves. The forests surrounding the kingdom are protected by the spirits of ancient elven warriors and it is rumoured that even the trees occasionally unroot from the ground to roam the forest in times of need. Far to the South of Holindale, the forests of Rug'lak are occupied by many Orc tribes that have taken up positions to raid the neighboring kingdoms of Holindale and Berrymuck to the West. They have managed to evade patrols and strike at trading caravans and travellers foolish enough to try to take a short-cut through their ancestral lands.
