Between the Lonely Moor and the Fallen Lands.

This forest is sometimes considered part of the High Forest, although it is seperated from the rest of it by many miles of rough plains. A Sun Elf kingdom once ruled this forest, but in the last 100 years it fell to invaders. There are some elven ruins still, and appearently at least one intact fortress. The only organized activity in the forest is the Pyke Syndicate, a group of bandits, brigands, cutthroats, mercenaries, extortionists and orphan-raisers who welcome all races although the group is mostly human. The Pykes have a central camp that may have been recently attacked. They also have several small specialty outposts in the forest. There are thought to be fey creatures in the woods as well.
A fair amount of trade travels along the road at the southern edge of the forest, and it is from this trade that the Pyke Syndicates takes enough of a cut to survive.
