The Blackwood is a forest of great historical importance to the Elves. It is a beautiful forest teeming with nature, yet also holds the reputation of being a wood that housed the Song of Screams. Many battles have taken place here. Primarily, it has always been Elves against Drow. However, over the ages, the forest seems to have grown a life of it's own.
Children are warned through story and legend growing up outside of the Blackwood in the complementary named Greenwood, never to traverse into the Blackwood. Rumours of awakened brush and trees that move on their own only scratch the surface of the wondrous tales the forest holds.
