A very dimensionally unstable forest situated on the banks of the Jewel river, north east of Ur-Sagol. Seemingly more dimensionally unstable than the rest of Felarya, this place is full of vanishing lands, mirages, and plot holes. Very little is known about the reasons behind this zone's condition, but some legends tell of an ancient duel fought here between the guardian Mercreti and a very powerful spell caster, the current unstability of this zone being a direct result of the tremendous arcane forces unleashed in that battle.

The fauna varies a lot from one day to the next. Most of the creatures come from the multitude of vanishing lands that connect here, and thus are generally less dangerous than the rest of the Felaryan fauna. However, something in the zone appears to increase and accelerate dramatically the natural evolution of living beings there, leading some species to develop new abilities or to modify their bodies in a very short time, in order to suit better their environment. That's especially true in the eastern part of the forest.

Some powerful dimensional predators dwell here as well, unaffected by the ambient chaos. Giant hybrids, however, are much rarer than in the rest of Felarya. Lately the forest has become the personal hunting ground of a grey tailed giant naga named Katrika who is seemingly immune to the effects of the zone, can sense the dimensional disturbances and likes to "greet" any new arrivals - usually drooling and with a wide open mouth !
