Braces of Frandir

The ancient Forest of Frandir, if the legends are to be believed, was created by the goddess Gecyndas, well known as a protector of nature. While many marveled at her creation and fell in love with its beauty her half-sister, the mortal witch-goddess Gefas felt only hate and loathing. It was said that it was this jealously that drove Gefas’ desire for power, the power to rain down fire and destruction to her sister’s forest, a power which she eventually found. Now all that remains of that once great forest is a vast stretch of lifeless black dirt and the Braces of Frandir, which are said to be made from the remains of the first tree that was struck by the powers of Gefas.
