Hollow Woods
“ | The Hollow Woods are full of mysteries. | ” |
The Hollow Woods is a large forested area in Valedale. It is in northeast Silverglade, and the Silversong River runs through it. The forest is well known in Jorvik for being home to the Druids.
Appearance
Previous Appearance
Before the area was updated, the Hollow Woods was a sparse forest. It did not appear to have magical influence, and had no distinct unique features.
Current Appearance
The Hollow Woods, after its update, is a densely forested and misty area. It has multiple small streams that run throughout the forest, along with ponds and waterfalls. Lanterns are hung on many of the trees, primarily the ones located along paths, and some trees are marked with runes. It has various species of wildlife, including squirrels and rabbits (and glowing green fireflies when unlocked through Druidism). The forest has multiple sublocations.
