The Deep Forest, sometimes called Summeroak, was the divine realm of Silvanus.[1][2]
Cosmology[]
In the Great Wheel cosmology, this realm was located within the larger realm of Tir na Og in the Outlands.[1][2] According to the World Tree cosmology, the realm was located in the House of Nature.[5] And the World Axis cosmology placed this realm in the Deep Wilds.[3][4]
Geography[]
The Deep Forest was home to the greatest of all trees. It was a realm of thick and feral vegetation, as well as a rich and diverse wildlife. Dense and majestic canopies almost entirely blocked sunlight from reaching the ground below.[1][5]
The entire place was claimed by nature. There were no artificial buildings anywhere in the Deep Forest.[3]
Notable Locations[]
Silvanus was said to make his home at the heart of the Deep Forest, in a glen that was also referred to as Summeroak.[4]
