Xian

Magic is at it's strongest here. The air is charged with an buzzing energy from the aspects thriving in these parts. Xian, also known to the locals as 'the faeries' tramping ground', is an enigma within an enigma. Though it appears to be little more than a clearing in the forest of trees that grow taller than the clouds, with the spot on the earth marked by a ring of mushrooms, it is said that those who step inside the ring vanish. These travelers reappear sometimes many years later, long after their loved ones had forgotten about them. It is unknown if you are brought to other physical realms, here, or if you are instead cast into a dream-like state. Local legend says that the Xianmoria, the mysterious inhabitants of Xian, come to this clearing to dance and kidnap mortals to join their revelry. Cross the circle at your own risk, and if you hear the strains of erhu begin to rise, start running.
