The immediate surroundings of Negav, within the The Isolon Eye range.

Chomikai commons

Danger : Low
Inhabitants: humans, nekos, podmaws, arboreal frogs, starkala bugs, duikers

All around Negav is a circular zone that is well within the The Isolon Eye range. This gentle jungle is carved by many paths and even some rare buildings. It's much safer than almost any other area in Felarya, as most giant predators simply can't enter it, but it's still a dangerous place. Indeed, many smaller predators thrive there, and despite their size, they better not be ignored. Morever, as you progress farther from the Isolon Eye, creatures you encounter are becoming increasingly bigger and more voracious. Once you arrive at the limit of the Eye's influence, there is little difference with the Felarya jungle proper, and you could very well encounter a giant naga that is just a little bit more magical resistant than usual but will happily prove to be not less voracious ! One should not worry too much about inadvertently entering the Felaryan jungle though, as there is plenty of rather scary and serious signposts marking the end of the safe zone.

It's important to note that the biggest danger of Chomikai commons usually comes from the numerous bandits, thugs and brigands roaming the zone. Some of them are well organized and heavily armed. Because of them, more than a few adventurers'journey ended before even starting ( althought to be fair they probably wouldn't have lasted very long anyway )

Motamo Docks

Danger : Very Low
Inhabitants: humans, nekos,

The Motamo Docks exist outside of Negav, to the Northwest of the city. It is essentially a smaller community, existing on the shores of the Motamo river. There is not much trade or travel on the river, but what little exists is handled here. This small village is also known as something of a satellite community, like Nekomura. Smaller less humanoid species, like small dridders, nagas and other species, occasionally attempt to move towards civilization, or seek protection from the big predators that prey on them. However, there are laws in place barring these races from entering Negav, as Negavians do not always trust these jungle people - smaller nagas and dridders can still be dangerous, even if they appear to be able to pass through the anti-predatory field of the Isolon Eye. Thus, these races turned away started to congregate beside the Motamo River, close enough to Negav to benefit from the Isolon Eye, but not within the walls where they could perturb the rest of the populace. Some resent this rejection, others are happy to be able to live with protection while still retaining some of their traditions.
