Tucked away amongst the unique landscapes and enchanting environments within the Woven Worlds of Allorea is a small, insignificant marsh known as the Fenwoods. The area provides a native habitat to a plethora of small mammals, reptiles, amphibians, and a diverse range of insects that are well-adapted to the environment. Mostly uncharted, travelers who have ventured within its limits have experienced a slow, disorienting passage, while most others choose to bypass the area entirely. 

The Fenwoods is home to a small tribe of lizardfolk who seek to maintain the natural beauty and further their profound connection to the marsh. Outsiders who make their way through the marsh are normally monitored by patrols from a distance to make sure they do not harm or take residence within the environment.
