Locations in Natura

     Natura is located south of the mountains and is surrounded by the Dark Green forest of Centripax and the river to the west. Paths lead into its four gates; the north, south, east and west gates. Although Natura is walled, it is more of a formality as the walls are made of wood.

Outside of Natura lies many important landmarks. The famous Ranger Hall of Natura lies north of the east gate. Somewhere within the forest, the Druid Cave of Master Wolfguard lies hidden. Only a few have ever lay eyes upon it. Also, The Tower of Magicks deep in the forest, stands tall, yet deserted, only its retainer Franchesca remained after Archmage Destiny left mysteriously.
