Chuyokai Forest

Update needed This article should be updated to reflect canon changes noted in Tian Xia World Guide. Please help improve it if you can; the talk page might contain suggestions.

The Chuyokai Forest is located across the southern reaches of the kingdom of Chu Ye, and due to its fearsome nature it effectively serves as a buffer between Chu Ye and the neighbouring kingdom of Wanshou. The forest is generally avoided by most folk and even the oni rulers of Chu Ye, for in the heart of Chuyokai dwell monsters even the demonic oni fear.

The Chuyokai Forest is also home to over a dozen secret bases of the Mizu Ki Hikari, a group of human rebels who resist the oni rule of Chu Ye. They use the Chuyokai due to it being an area the oni have no interest in, however, the Mizu Ki Hikari are active only around the forest edges as, like the oni, they fear the terrible things that dwell in the forest's heart.
