Rheodad is more rugged a forest than most, given its secluded nature. Falling trees are a common threat, and the jagged cliffs upon which it sits are perilous indeed. However, despite the raw, untamed nature of the environment, a thriving ecosystem is in place here. Hares, cormorants, otters, sandpipers, and lynxes all make their home here, as well as large clouds of mosquitoes. More threatening, perhaps, is the [[geryas]], a scaly reptile with an elongated neck and flippers that dwells in the caverns at the foot of the cliffs surrounding the forest. The woodsman [[Theron]], a man who is almost as dangerous as the geryas if not moreso, resides within Rheodad with his wolves, as does the ghostly [[Teresa]]. | Rheodad is more rugged a forest than most, given its secluded nature.

Rheodad is also where the [[Ashtan|Ashtani]] polemarch [[Amphites]] was laid to rest with his shipwrecked crew. Rumour has it that the forest's fate is linked to the rainforest isle of [[Shala-Khulia]] by way of a strange and ancient curse. | Rheodad is also where the [[Ashtan|Ashtani]] polemarch [[Amphites]] was laid to rest with his shipwrecked crew after their [[triremes|trireme]] struck a small rocky island off the beach nearby.
