On a rocky hillside that offers panoramic views of the village, sleek silver panthers prowl about the ready to pounce anything that moves amidst the [[bayberry]] trees and [[hawthorn]] plants growing in the area. The hills lead to a series of grassy plains and shallow depressions where baboons, mazaran horses, and feral dogs make their home among [[lady's slipper]] plants and [[goldenseal]] flowers. | ||
An obsidian cave on the island is home to dozens of black [[bats]] and Sirawyn, the fallen priestess.
