Lolth's Grove

Lolth's Grove was the devastated former divine realm of Lolth within Arvandor, the joint realm of the Seldarine on Arborea's first layer.

Description
Lolth's Grove was a shadow of its former glory. The trees of the grove, once shining in silver bark in autumn atmosphere, were blackened, uprooted, or broken down. A spring at the center was left fouled and muddy.

Lolth's Grove was avoided by all animals except spiders, often of enormous size, and dominated by oppressive silence. It also was haunted by many banshees, the undead remains of Lolth's slain followers.

Connections
Lolth's Grove was bordered on the north by the Highhunt River and the flow of Lolth's Tears, on the east. Arvandor's portal to the Outlands gate-town of Sylvania was located just outside of the grove.

History
The Grove was the seat of the elven deity Araushnee for millennia. When she betrayed her consort Corellon by instigating the War of the Seldarine, she was banished to the Abyss, many of her followers were slain and her realm was left ruined.
