According to local lore, the Dark Forest has its roots in a long-forgotten era, when the land of Ylym was still in its formative stages. It is said that the forest was born from the primordial forces of nature, shaped by the ancient magic that coursed through the earth. Over the centuries, the forest has evolved, growing denser and more complex, with towering trees that seem to stretch up to the sky and a underbrush that appears impenetrable.
