The Discordant Woods is part of the Great Forest and one of the relatively Stable Points of the Far Dreaming.
Overview[]
There is a place within the Great Forest where the bitterest memories resurface:
Though the fruit of the trees is sweet and nutritious, Though the loam of the forest makes a comfortable bed, Though the game in the woods is in plenty, The Discordant Woods bring a silent dread. The Discordant Woods are lovely.
Within this peaceful forest, nearly all wants are satisfied. The animals of the wood thrive, and nary a moment goes by when the birds fail to sing an enchanting song. Bees in the woods don't sting, and the honey from their hives is sweeter, by far, than nectars found in the Waking World.
There is only one problem: The woods awaken old hatreds for all who spend the night resting among the peace and plenty. Long-forgotten slights are remembered, and angry words are never forgiven, so long as one stays within the Discordant Woods.
