The Nomad Highlands ملاحظة قصصية · الجزء 5 من 7

Location: Embervale (Centre)

Climate: Semi-arid

Precipitation: Around 350 mm annually

Flora & Fauna:

Plant growth here is limited to select areas wherein the ground can retain adequate moisture. Within the pale green fields that dot the Nomad Highlands, travellers may encounter sugar cane and bell pepper plants, as well as Flightless Redtails, which feed on their seeds.

The local birdlife produces nutritious eggs, which serve as excellent sources of protein for the primary predators: Sabertooth Tigers and Humans.

Geological & Mineral Data

The region presents both flat plains and staggering differences in altitude. The biosphere is undercut with an underground river network that converges on a former lake (Umber Hollow), which was caused by a large meteorite impact.

Summary:

The Highlands are equidistant to both the Revelwood and the Kindlewastes — serving as a transitional space between the very humid and extensively dry climates, respectively. The central location and easily traveled upper layer have elevated the area to a bustling trade hub that hides many riches in the forgotten caverns below.
