The Shining Plains
Realm
The Shining Plains are grasslands of the Vilhon Reach named for the way sunlight shines on them, shared by city-states, wemic and centaur tribes and the druids of the Emerald Enclave.
Sunlight ripples over endless grass, and hunters follow herds of bison toward the distant mountains.
