Only steps north of the Northern Highway, the large yet peacful Lake Janoah is a welcome retreat for travelers and creatures alike. Though the shrouds of the Woods of Mystery lay to her east, Janoah provides no sense of forboding or fear. With her, all who come in peace find a plase to rest and relax. On her tranquil surface, water fowl glide and play. On her shores, elegent creatures stop for a drink. In her depths, fish of all sorts weave their way around. All who lay down their swords are welcome here. But for those who bring the blood of war, whether against man or beast, Janoah is guarded fiercly by those who she calls her own.
