Kaimuko Wood

The Kaimuko Wood is a large forest that dominates much of the land area of the country of Tianjing.

Kaimuko Wood harbours numerous small empyrean villages throughout its depth, and it was to this woodland that many of Tianjing's inhabitants retreated during the destructions that followed the fall of Imperial Lung Wa. While it may once have provided sanctuary to frightened citizens, some of the deepest reaches of the Kaimuko Wood are now home to the worst Abyssal rifts that afflict Tianjing. Through these rifts come qlippoths, an ancient evil older than the Great Beyond itself. Patrols of empyreans clash with these hateful abominations in the depth of Kaimuko Wood; the qlippoth seem to be growing in strength, and many fear that these skirmishes are but a prelude to a full-scale invasion.
