Heran Adventures: 007 - Eastern Howling Forest
Added 2021-01-20 20:41:24 +0000 UTC
We came across the Tempest Cliffs, where a gateway exists to the Mundi of Light.
The last poll decided that we would move on to exploring the Eastern Howling Forest, where there is said to be a sweet scent lingering in the air.
The eastern Howling Forest has a distinct feature that it is in perpetual darkness for the majority of the calendar year. This darkness attracts various predators that take advantage of the shadowy foliage.
The eastern Howling Forest also contains a spectacular light show that can be seen in its dark recesses, featuring various species of insects and plants glowing, almost in rhythm, in the nocturnal shadows.
This light show is not the only oddity within the eastern Howling Forest. A sweet scent often lingers through the air; though this is anything but a good sign as this scent is associated with the Nepenthes Carnivora (common name Bulbstein).
This carnivorous plant attracts local fauna with it's sweet nectary smell. Once entranced the Bulbstein has its way and devours its prey.
Brave souls sometimes venture deep within the Howling Forest to hunt these creatures, as it is said that the slimy liquid that oozes from their glands has medicinal qualities.
