As you travel towards the centre of the woods, Nurahi tells Aeryn all he knows about the forest, starting with the different species of trees. They are standard for the most part being tall, green leaved and relatively straight in design with some out reaching branches. There are however several more exotic species, always concentrated in smalls areas. Red leaved sycamore east of the pixie’s settlement, drooping and thin branched trees with knobbly trunks in the wetter corner and stout, smooth trunked dwarven trees in the northern reaches.<br/>The wildlife is varied, and territories often change, but rarely so drastically as with the scamper monkeys. The point she does pick up on is the safety pixie’s feel here, since almost nothing living can detect them when invisible.<br/>The weather is fair and crops grow well, even after periods of drought. However the green fields of the elves cause a lot of tension with the buccaneers of Pirate isle, as the latter tend to supplement their diet of fish with crops, but have no land to grow their own on.<br/>“We are nearing our settlement now,” Nurahi speaks to Aeryn in particular, but loud enough for Xen and Morgan to hear as well. "There are sixteen of us in total, and most of us should be present for you three lassies. Their use to be another one, but he left with the self proclaimed prince of this forest left. Now do you have anything that belonged to the Redman, cause otherwise this is going to be a long, blind search?”
