Anferita Wood

The Anferita Wood is a dense forest located just north of the port city of Corentyn, and is the southwesternmost forest in the nation of Cheliax.

Inhabitants

A number of yeth hound packs hunt in the southern part of the wood, having found their way there from the Great Beyond. They occasionally attack the farms and vineyards north of Corentyn on moonless nights, and their howls can be heard in the city as well, much to the amusement of the local devils. Two prides of manticores, 'tame' and loyal servants of the Chelaxian naval officer Frazura Antelo, also live within the Anferita Wood, using the forest as their hunting ground when not serving him directly.

The Anferita is also the birthplace and home of Tregellus Aranega, the blind Grand Druid, leader of the Green Faith, and his circle of druids. He frequently leaves the wood to confer with other Great Druids and Archdruids throughout Golarion.

Deep in the wood and often the center of druidic learning, there is Serenity's Copse, an old grove of dryads bonded to the whole grove rather than individual trees. It is led by the dryad sorcerer Genliss and protected by illusions and elaborate wards. However, as of 4715 AR, the copse was entirely closed off and became the site of fiendish rumors.
