Tevgil is the enormous rainforest that spans much of the Cape. Its trees are ancient and massive, rising like cathedrals. The forest’s outer edges still receive sunlight, but farther within, entire regions are swallowed by darkness and completely obscured beneath the canopy.
Long ago, a “well” of energy breached the surface, sending ley lines throughout Tevgil. The plants grew toward them instinctively, drawn to their power more intimately than they had ever been drawn to sunlight.
As the forest thickened, its trees rose high enough to blot out the sun entirely. Rather than wither, the plants defied it. Sustained and vitalised by the ley energy beneath them, they continued to grow in total darkness.
Because of this, much of Tevgil is not green. Its flora appears in deep reds, purples, blues, and magentas, their colours shaped by the energy running through the forest.
