~~@ The Aether Garden @~~
To the west of Nightveil across the forest the trees suddenly start to get much larger, the plants and animals more plentiful until a river is reached with a steep cliff side across the water. A foreboding bridge of massive and old bones leads up into what can only be described as a paradise.
Flowers as tall as trees feintly glow with their own light. Casting the whole land in a brightness unlike anywhere else. Huge trees warp and grow around and with massive quartz crystals of blue, yellow and pale purple. Most impressively is the size of the wildlife here. While having the same range of wildlife as the forest outside of Nightveil, all of the animals here are all at the peak of their species size. So much so hunting them and returning with all the meat may be cumbersome.
The area is bright, devoid of duskspawn regardless of time of day or night, [IE, ignore mobs] and gives a positive buzz of energy to those exploring it. The counter to that is that this can be tiring after a long enough time in the garden.
Curiously, The bridge is only the first sign that people have and still use these grounds, though there’s no one currently inhabiting any of the locations within. What could this place tell of Nightveil’s past and for its future?
Go find out.

This site is complete! You may explore it at your leisure, the Aether Garden is not a hostile place, so any character can putts around there in relative safety. The only real threat is wildlife, and for the most part, due to their size, they don't see people as threats. Please don't take any lore books from this setting, and don't empty chests of all their loot, leave some for others. Have fun!
PS; Yes, the Aether here makes the whole garden pretty much deadly to Xitians.
