Waygold
This plant can grow to a man-sized bush, and its likes shade and soil that is seldom soggy. It is hardy enough to survive most climates but the very coldest and very hottest. Despite this hardiness and adaptability, it is not a common plant. It produces many tasty and nutritious berrys, but the seeds within do not survive passage through most creatures digestive tracts. Thus, few of these plants are actually replanted after feeding many hungry woodland creatures and even travellers. It is said that these plants ae not native to Trishore, but actually a gift from the Gypsy Queens.


Whitepeak
The tallest mountain on all of Seteria, Whitepeak sits amongst the mighty peaks of the Khorog Mountains like a king among other notables. At 9192m above sea level, human life can not be maintained anywhere near its peak without powerful magicks. Other creatures however revel in this remote and seldom visited realm, and travellers are warned to be on cordial terms with these natives as well, or potentially suffer the consequences.


Whiteshoulders
At 8482m above sea level, this is the sixth tallest mountain on Seteria. As you might expect from its name, Whiteshoulders is noted for massive snowfalls, virtually all year long. Along with the rest of the Whitefang Range, it creates an enormous rainshadow to the west, helping to keep the Shield Barrens so dry. Well loved by the dwarves whose tunnels weave throughout her, even the dwarves seldom venture outside during a snowstorm.

Woolyr
A small, non-descript town about 150 km south of Loridym, capital city of the Kingdom of Schew. Woolyr is walled, but it is a scant 4 m tall, and in poor repair. The local Mayor and most of the town Watch are far more interested in avoiding a call to the battles in the north against the Ocean Tribes than manning the walls of a peaceful and boring town. It is notable only for a fine inn called the Golden Ewe (two days hard riding down the paved road from Loridym makes a good place to rest), and for the constant sound of sheep. If Schew is noted for wool, then clearly Woolyr is its beating heart. Sheep outnumber humans by about 1000 to 1, and come shearing time this town triples in size, resulting in more good business for the Golden Ewe.
