Overview
Lush Brocéliande, on the border between Dawn and Highguard, is considered by the Navarr as ancestral homeland and is the single largest forested expanse in the Empire. This is where Navarr and Thorn first danced. The Navarr have been unable to make any significant gains in this territory against the Vallorn, and over the last fifty years, much of the forest has been infiltrated by barbarian orc communities settling from the Barrens. It is considered a major threat to the Empire.
Major Settlements
The Broch
The largest collection of steadings of the Navarr, well-defended and constantly guarded. It is the western edge of the Navarr’s watch on the barbarians and darker horrors of Brocéliande. It is both fortification against the orcs, and a place of ritual where Vates gather when necessary to counter specific magical threats.
Minor Settlements
Eleri’s Stead
Once a peaceable place, a Navarr counterpart to High Chalcis where herbs and forest plants were studied. It was swept away as orcs flooded from the Forest of Peytaht.
Greenstead
A stone-walled steading built with support from Rucastle as Dawn and the Navarr threw a ring around the dark heart of the forest there. It is often assaulted, but with Dawnish support it has always held. There has long been a bond - and several intermarriages - between the two settlements.
