Hey how would you guys describe an enchanted grove? A small collection of trees surrounding a small pool where small woodland creatures are playing happily and magic stuff??? Trying to discribe how it is... Regardless the Map is pretty much done, just need to add the trees and different effects (Mist, Current in the River, bushes) I feel that the Map atm, might seem to be weird but please remember, each of these MAPS is considered a single World Map tile, more on that later of course...

Magic Grove = Woodland Creatures, Thick Curtain of trees around a deep still pool, a Mist clinging just above and around the trees, with magical beings in, and around the water (Nyaids, I think thats what they are called)

i think of then pretty warhammerish where the deity have their places of harmony with life and such, with an broken OP guard.

Grail Knight type of Guard, or what where the girls who had been chosen by the Lady called?

I think of them as a enclosed space in the woods, surrounded by a circle of tress except for one small entrance. The tress would be un-cuttable. Upon going inside the entrance, people would be either blessed or cursed by the the Naiads and Nymphs living within a deep, still lake. Blessed people would be able to return and leave whenever they wanted, to become happier from admiring nature. Cursed people would be stuck inside until someone blessed takes them out again. Maybe it would take a long time to reach the grove, like maybe 3-4 days to just enter? I'd imagine that time slows down inside there.

I imagine it as a fairly thick series of trees, to the point where it's often fairly dark traveling through them, but interspersed with grassier, sunlit areas, often featuring some sort of water source, and generally inhabited by various woodland spirits and magical flora.

Personally, when i think of enchanted grove (and this doesn't really have anything to do with enchantment, more like as a visual thing), I think of it like walking out of a dark, musty conifer (predominately fir) forest, the ground covered with dead plant matter, into a light and airy deciduous (mostly birch) grove, whose ground isn't covered with dead matter, but is filled with living grass. There's a few of these areas in the parkland around my city.

As far as enchantment goes, perhaps the plants that grow there would have potonomantic properties? or there could be fairies &/or unicorns?

Originally the TOP VOTES were going to be in the very first map view, in other words, THE WORLD TILE YOU ARRIVE AT, but this feels more like something I need to build up to...
But you guys decide, Build up to an Enchanted Grove or present it on the Home Tile. Mind you being able to build up makes possible rewards/conflicts more exciting. Else I would have to water it down so its not like you embarked next to a firebreathing dragon...

Here it is, the Home Map Tile...
This is where you first appear. The game hasn't started yet mind you, so don't be posting Actions, gotta write up some things first
ALSO, if you want to see anything added or feel that things don't look right let me know. Please note, that YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO SEE ANY ORE OR ANYTHING UNTIL A MINER "EXAMINES A WALL"... I really don't want to try drawing up Veins and such because thats all going to be randomized so again...
