======The Forest of Loss====== * A gargantuan Forest surrounds the city of Rastaban in a dense, forbidding expanse. * Those who touch the Forest or venture into it come back changed. Their blood made of sweet sap. Their actions strange and alien. * Nor is the Forest content with keeping to its bounds. It is fast. It is constantly shifting and expanding. * The Forest takes who it can. If left unchecked, it will take everyone. * That is why we call it the Forest of Loss. * To help manage the constant threat of the Forest, the Foresters Guild was founded. * There are certain rare and ill-starred individuals who enter the Forest and emerge unscathed. These individuals are recruited into the Foresters Guild, safe from the fear and superstition of society.
