The Eerie Woods (魔の森) is a location situated in the folded space between The Isthmia Great Forest and the village of Eryn.
Background[]
The forest is traditionally associated with the Hexen Clan and serves as a sort of buffer zone between their home and the greater Isthmian Forest. Throughout the woods, the higher elements are active and many spirits can be found. Erynflowers grow in abundance within the forest along with special plants and herbs used in the medicines and equipment used by the Hexen Clan. The location is lit with an ethereal blue glow and what appears to be bioluminescence. Teleport obelisks must be sued to access different areas of the forest or the village itself. The Eerie woods are known to change in appearance and layout.
It is also the location of the Saint-Gral Labyrinth. Upon approach to the labyrinth, all the colour is seemingly sucked from the atmosphere, appearing grey and monotonous.
