Flora and Fauna
In the Ka'ahlen Swamp, colossal water striders and gargantuan ishkynd worms slither and teeter amongst beds of black cohosh, prickly ash, and bellwort. In a boreal thicket area bordering the swamp to the west and south, the forestal herbs ginseng, wild ginger, myrrh bushes, lobelia wildflowers, purple echinacea coneflowers, and red elm trees flourish.
On the path to Onorel village, dark green caolan bushes grow along with pink-berried amrunal and red-leafed laumspur plants. Black cranes, white coyotes, star-nosed moles, and cunning weasels can be found.
Valerian plants grow higher up on the path leading to the Obele monastery. Majestic, wild caribou and bulky yaks inhabit this area, as well.
Deep in the shadowed caverns of Ganeve Den, irid moss and bloodroot grow in abundance while some of the more courageous animals of the valley visit from time to time.
