Settled into the ancient and sacred Heartwood grove, Myeara's the crossing represents an act of defiance by the Terrestrial elven people against the encroaching influence of Tenrimere.
During the time of the great schism, Myeara guided those still untouched by the influence of the Celestial Elves to make their escape to a place that all elves would be loathe to make war in pursuit of them: the sacred grove of Heartwood Trees. Supplanting a small tribe of ogres which had begun to shape mounds there, Myeara's Crossing became a persistent political issue for the empire.
A pact made with the wild and typically nomadic Longtusk Orcs of the jungles helped to secure its strength militarily as a small independent force unto itself, and the arrival of the Fae into the grove seemed to give credence to the espoused naturalistic philosophy. It is advised that denizens of the empire stay clear of the crossing and the grove as it seems quite easy for good-natured misunderstandings to devolve into heated political situations.
The denizens of Myeara's Crossing within the Heartwood grove hold their lands sacred and regard visitors with no better than cautious observation. The Heartwood of the grove is said to be quite valuable and it isn't uncommon for industrious thieves to attempt to sneak in and harvest the branches unbidden.
