Sylvania

Sylvania was a gate-town in the Outlands that connected to the plane of Arborea. "Do? Who says a city is supposed to do something?"

- Migon the Sly

Geography
Approximately from the base of the Spire, the town was located in a forest of abnormally large flora. In this forest, the gate to Arborea moved around, always invisible. Often, travelers looking for a way out of Sylvania's surrounding foliage would pass through the gate unknowingly and into Arborea.

Government
Sylvania was governed by a group known as the Seven Spiritors. The Seven were spirits known to possess bodies of mortals for years or decades at a time in order to take a physical form, with most hosts volunteering themselves for the position. They were each known by a title that reflected their natures: Action, Knowledge, Pain, Passion, Reflection, Rest, and Thought.
