Howth
Enclave of Nature and Mystery
Deep within the mighty Borgaswald Forest lies Howth, a settlement that blends harmoniously with the natural world. This ancient town, rumored to be founded by deities who created the forest, is home to various races of men and mysterious creatures such as satyrs and centaurs.
The residents of Howth are generally wary of outsiders but maintain a tight-knit community. Life in Howth ebbs and flows with the seasons. In summer, long days are spent gathering food, while winter nights see the townsfolk huddled indoors as snow blankets the forest. Spring brings the search for medicinal herbs and rare mushrooms, and autumn welcomes travelers who share tales of distant lands in the local taverns.
The forest itself hums with mystical energy. On still mornings, one can hear the faint echoes of enchanting music played by satyrs and centaurs, hinting at the wondrous happenings deep within its depths.
