The Savannah of Broken Trusts
   The grasses here are nearly four feet tall, making it hard for the smaller
folk to see much past their noses. Others, however, can see the savannah
stretch to the horizon, the wind-bent grasses broken only by the occasional
rock outcropping or baobab tree. This area is home to the M'Bele tribes,
currently only two in number; their long history of war and betrayal gives
the region its sad name.

 You attempt to flee...
Edge of The Savannah of Broken Trusts
   The savannah here gives way to an incredibly dense jungle. It is as if a
powerful mage had summoned a wall of brambles; in a nearly straight line
stretching out of sight in both directions, the veldt grasses are cut off and
a jumble of tightly packed roots, vines and branches begins. Travel even ten
feet into the jungle would be impossible without a razor-sharp machete and
about three weeks.

You flee eastward!

Site of a Recent Battle
   The savannah grasses are trampled and flattened here, and bloated corpses
litter the area. The corpses are easily identified as being M'Bele, although
whether they are Tukluk or Butsu is harder to determine. All metal or other
valuables have long been looted; it looks as though the battle is nearly two
days old, now.
