This forest lies within the boundries of Larket and is way smaller than the one to the South. it borders the river on one side and the city streets on the other. One may never know what they will find when entering upon this forest of darkness and strange noises.
Ferminville
A damp and dark place, this is a mini city beneath Larket. It is home to life-size rat people, and a different society. One could easily get lost here, within the catacombs of Larket. But really, this is the sewers of this great city above.

Religion in Larket
Traditionally, Larketians follow primarily Cyris, then Arkhen. A small sect of never-do-wells also follow Delisha.
However, following a terrible curse that plagued Larket's children to rapidly age and die, King Macon made a deal with Vakmatharas. The God of Death will lift the curse from the children whose parents fully embrace Vakmatharas in their hearts, and the deal remains intact so long as the King uses his position to spread the Death Lord's gospel.

Along with Dyven, King of Gualon and Lorvac, Arc Chieftain of the city of Cruaghmoyle, Ravian set off to confront the Dark Immortal in Gualon City.

Arrecation approached Ravian while reaching to his back and unsheathing a dark blade that shimmered in the black flames of Hell.
