Flora and Fauna of Sanctuary Vale
Sanctuary Vale’s landscape supports a distinctive range of flora and fauna adapted to its highland savanna conditions.
Flora
- Vale Grass – A low-growing, dry-season grass with thin golden tan blades.
- Kire Shrubs – Tough, gnarled shrubs that calcify in their upper branches during dry cycles.
- Pyr Trees – Rare, tall trees with narrow trunks and shallow canopies.
- Spring Fig Trees – These trees grow near water. Their pale fruit is a popular delicacy and their leaves reflect faint light.
Fauna
A Slateback Behemoth
- Pierrooks – Long-legged birds with tapered beaks and thin, high-crested feathers. They often nest near Pyr Trees or ledge hollows.
