E9 — Shrine of the Forest
Cedar Court · Area 9
Shrine of the Forest
Read Aloud
Beyond a short, winding path rests a small shrine built into a living cedar's roots. Smooth stones, fallen blossoms, and modest offerings surround a carved wooden emblem. A trickle of water passes beside the clearing, and the murmur of leaves muffles the bustle of the court. Even passing guardians lower their voices.
GM Notes
This is a place for prayers, offerings, private conversations, and a peaceful farewell before an expedition. A guardian can offer a blessing or express gratitude for the party's protection of the forest. The shrine does not automatically cleanse blight, purify water, or replace the specialized medicine and seed neutralizers carried by the party.
