Decades ago, when the [[Sylayan]] of the [[Lalwan Eryn]] explored the forest of [[Khandava Forest|Khandava]], some chose to remain. While their roots began within the [[Arboreals]], the people of '''Mylani''' found their life more suited to that of a hunter and over time became more attuned to the fauna of the Wilds. During the demon incursions, they decided they had no need of the troubles of the world and called upon the very Wilds to seal them within their home. Any efforts to enter the village were met with the force of the Wilds, the trees literally closing around it. | Decades ago, when the [[Sylayan]] of the [[Lalwan Eryn]] explored the forest of [[Khandava Forest|Khandava]], some chose to remain.

Mylani has become a self-sustaining village and is a lesson in living off the lands. Its inhabitants have retained much of their own style of living, even in the face of the modern age, and offer anyone the generosity and comforts of their enchanted home. | Mylani has become a self-sustaining village and is a lesson in living off the lands.

Found inside a massive hollowed redwood, '''the Redwood Staples Shop''' sells the towne's produced resources of crops and livestock. Above it, '''the Sylayan Emporium''' sells inks and some woodland edibles. '''Heartstrings''', the sole privately-owned shop in the towne, can be found just south of the aforementioned redwood. | |||
==Flora and Fauna== | |||
The indicative redwoods of Khandava continue to be widespread in Mylani. Woodland creatures, such as long-tailed wood mice and wild rabbits, frolic across the towne. Pheasants peck earthworms out of the earthen paths, while red frogs inhabit the pond on the northeastern side of towne. An owl also calls Mylani home, while a tamed eagle accompanies Elarad. On the northern edge of the towne is an orchard of pomegranate and mango trees. | |||
