Far, far away from the frozen lands of the Ice Behemoths, where silence reigned beneath eternal snowfall, there lay a very different kind of nightmare—a place not of ice and deathly stillness, but of rot, poison, and thriving decay. Though often called a forest, the truth was far more insidious. The Purple Forest was more akin to a swamp—an overwhelming, monstrous jungle of death.
Colossal trees rose tens of thousands of meters into the air, their canopies so thick they completely blocked out sunlight, casting the entire forest floor into perpetual darkness. But the absence of light was not what made the place so infamous.
These trees constantly exuded a viscous purple sap, which seeped into the soil and transformed the ground into sludgy, foul-smelling mud. That same substance released a dense, toxic fog that drifted endlessly through the forest, laced with arcane venom potent enough to kill even human Legends if they remained exposed for too long.
