The wood is nothing more than the edge of the Aleriq forest, but on the tribe's territory, it lays across the river from the Aleriq Forest. It is nothimg more than a wood, no great sweeping forest, and not before long the thick-treed landscape winds away into the windlands, and the flat forest gives way to rolling hills.

At the far edge of the Tribelands is The Old Place; built by the Old Order. It is a ruined village of stone, roofs caved in and walls crumbling, that rests in the valley of the last hill at the bottom of the Windlands It is a haunted place, but an important one.

Dug beneath the ground by the Old Order, the Catacombs are a maze of ancient tunnels that lay entwined and unexplored beneath the territories. Two or three have been explored and mapped out, and are well known -- but the rest are death traps. The Main Passage is a direct tunnel from the Tribelands to the Aleriq Forest, dug under the river. There are three known entrances in the Tribelands; and the one to the Main Passage is in a crevice of rock in the Windlands.

The windlands make up the majority of the Tribelands, and begin at the edge of The Wood. From the dark treeline, the open lands stretch out beneath brilliant blue sky; great sweeping hillsides and plunging valleys as unpredictable as the frothy sea. The hills are mostly long green grasses, and decorated with large boulders wedged in the earth, and the occasional copse of trees. Rabbits and hawks both frequent these lands.

The border that marks the edge of the Tribelands is a river; the Tribe's border the shallow side of the river.The shore is flat and wide on this side; a long, drawn out beach of white pebbles slowly giving way to the shallow, reedy side of the river. On the other side of the beach, The Wood begins.

The camp is located in the Windlands, a stone cave carved into the side of a hill. It is a vast, high-ceilinged cave build deep into the hillside, with damp, cool stone floors.

The Aleriq Forest, named for the first fox of the Brotherhood, stretches across the expanse of the Brotherhood's territory. The forest is dense and black, even more so than the Wood across the river, and contains mostly massive, tall oak trees with gnarled and ancient branches. There is very little foliage in this ancient forest, but in the mornings a light gray mist seems to blanket the bare forest floor.

The brotherhood's camp is very different than that of the tribe. It is positioned with one side protected by the cliff face, and the remaining circumference bordered by thickly grown brambles. A dense canopy of trees bend over the camp, giving it protection from sun.

Exactly the same beneath the Aleriq Forest as beneath the Tribelands; the Catacombs are as dangerous and as unexplored. There are four known entrances to the tunnels beneath in this territory, but only two are explored, and one leads directly to the Main Passage. This one is beneath the Elder Oak.

Though it is not widely known, the Elder Oak hides one of the safest entrances to the Catacombs. But more notably to foxes in the brotherhood, it is a symbol of age and the Old Order; though it was no built by them. Th Elder Oak is a vast, ancient oak tree sky-high with wide, reaching, gnarled branches and roots that rise up from the ground like twisted arms welcoming one to the blackness beneath. To dare to go past the roots and underground, one would discover a small cave, and then a tunnel that leads to the catacombs. But outside, a small stream flows past the tree, and fish frequent.

At the far edge of the Aleriq Forest, the cliffside borders the brotherhood's territory. It stretches behind the forest and beyond, running almost parallel with the far-away river, and holding the forest between the two. It is an impressive cliff, unclimable but for a few spaces where the stubborn rocks have crumbled to a steep, pebbly slope. Far outside the territories, the cliff curves to meet the river at a waterfall.

An ironic contrast from the flat, shallow Tribe border, the brotherhood's side of the river is beachless; a steep and reedy bank plunging strait into deep water. Though it's useless for fishing, foxes find the deep water good for swimming, though the swift current can be dangerous.
