that it's difficult to pass through. On top of that, that's where the leshys territory begins. - The soldier shuddered. - It's better not to mess with them unless you have a few good battle mages with you. And even then, it's better not to look for a reason to fight. Apart from the forest dwellers, there are lots of different creatures there: bieses, wilis, fauns, black hounds, goblins and xanes.
-Xanes?- While Draco had heard of the other creatures, he had never heard of this one before.
-Yeah... A rare creature and equally dangerous. It looks like a human when you look at it from a distance, but when you get closer, there is nothing human about it except its posture.

They are inaccessible, though many have tried to explore them. Even the dwarf miners
