The Forest of Yore is ancient, sacred woodland; once part of the One Forest, home to a large Half-Elf population and the site of Vermithrax Moonchaser's "School of Magic", which has trained such notable individuals as Gereth Yaztromo, Arakor Nicodemus and Pen Ty Kora. It is situated in the Vale of Willow near to the city of Salamonis, which is almost as old, having been founded before the War of the Wizards.
