The Emerald Jungle/Lore

In the days of the First Iksar Empire, the area now known as the Emerald Jungle was the farmlands of the empire, with little to no trees, but many small settlements.

When the natural disasters that ultimately led to the fall of the Empire happened, the giant cliff that cut the land into pieces till today arose and the enchanters in Yclist sealed their city. With the control that the enchanters exerted over the farm slaves being void, the former slaves turned against their masters, and the empire fell.

Over the millennia, the jungle reclaimed the lands, and while some scavengers from the new Iksar empire settled on the top of the cliff, the bottom area around Yclist is only inhabited by the dead, somehow still stuck in this world, but with no memories of their past.
