- One patch of the forest lies about a league to east, about four miles away from the castle. Other sections lie to the south and west. The forest is vast stretching many miles. It is the location of the kingdom of Fairie ruled by Quilli'ehennan, and Culatha the king and queens of the Wood, thus the forest is a neighboring kingdom to Daventry. Although some of Daventry's farm lands lie beyond it. The Old Woods where faeries live are also known as faery woods. The forest has existed since before the fairies moved there, and has existed there long before there was even a Kingdom of Daventry. The wood is indeed Old, and has existed in times before humans, and before faeries even.

It is the location of the kingdom of Fairie ruled by Quilli'ehennan, and Culatha the king and queens of the Wood, thus the forest is a neighboring kingdom to Daventry. Although some of Daventry's farm lands lie beyond it. The Old Woods where faeries live are also known as faery woods. The forest has existed since before the fairies moved there, and has existed there long before there was even a Kingdom of Daventry. The wood is indeed Old, and has existed in times before humans, and before faeries even. The term Old Woods is also refers to any of several stands of old-growth deciduous forest, generally inhabited by woodland fairies. The Old Woods near the Kingdom of Daventry are one of the most famous in the world.). The Old Woods were not merely old in name, but had been there longer than there had been a kingdom of Daventry. The Old Woods were not merely old in name, but had been there longer than there had been a kingdom of Daventry. The Old Woods contain faery magic, and magic older than the faery.It is the place where faeries and other fantastical creatures dwell. It goes back to the time of the Old in the reckoning of the trees themselves, a time before even the Woodland faeries moved there. King Graham and Valanice were the first to enter the forest after being summoned by the Elkrider, in order to talk to the Fairy King Quilli'ehennan, and find out that Graham had to save Ahi'aorina (who later became known as Culatha) from the imps of Sorrowing Court. Years later Rosella entered the forest to get away from some sloks, and was nearly killed by some mischievous fairies, but was saved by a white faery (who claimed she was a friend of her father). Who then lead her out of the forest. Years later Alexander entered a section of the forest on his way to dark castle. He encountered the fairies, and Culatha gave him Green Wallet to help him on his journey because the floating castle not only threatened Daventry but the Old Woods as well. Time appears to move differently in the woods than the surrounding lands, as people going into the old woods may only be there a few minutes from their POV, but hours or days or even years could have passed outside the forest. What may seem like an hour, could be a year or more. Though the effects aren't always the same, and may be different each time they enter the woods, it is caused by the effects of faery magic, and magic much older than even the fairies. The Cyclopedia had this to say about Old Woods, and Faery woods in general; Old Woods; Any of several stands of old-growth deciduous forest, generally inhabited by woodland fairies. Faery wood; Faery woods exist in several kingdoms of the eastern continent. The Dale of Solitude and the Stream of Yilia'mureia are landmarks in the Old Wood.
