The Wood was separated into several areas: Mott West Wood, Oraz Wood, Mott East Wood and Mott South Wood. At the heart of the Wood was the settlement of Mott, itself. Mott East Wood and Mott South wood were separated from each other by Greydog Lake. In the year 1161 BS, Staff Sergeant Aragan referred to the area outside Mott Forest on Genabackis as 'farmland hit by five years' drought and a war twice as long'.
