Verdanthar is a sprawling arboreal city built into colossal sequoias whose branches weave homes, walkways, and sanctums via living woodcraft and druidic spells, centered on the glowing rune-barked Great Elderwood which channels ley energies and binds the community to the forest's will.
A city grown from living wood where the forest breathes with its people.
