			== The Tree of Verdance ==
			A central point of the caverns, around which the other forest biomes circle, each with a dryad, all dedicated to protecting the tree. The tree is magnificently large and in fact two trees entwined so closely with one another, most people just call it the Verdant Tree. Nestled in the branches. there a council gathering spot in/on the tree somewhere. With branches so big, they have houses nestled on them, with interconnecting bridges and branches, creating a treehouse network. In the middle of the tree, the Dryad Counsel Room can be found, where the Dryads charged with protecting the tree meet to discuss important matters. Surrounding the tree is a ring of mixed biome as each of the Verdant Cavern biomes connect to the Tree, creating a mixture of diverse flora.

	The [[Wild Gardens]] is the main cavern, and a few of the smaller offshoots, and is most often a dense humid jungle, though some areas are thick forests and the odd clearing. Sunlight shines every hour of the day, though through the darkest parts of the dense jungles it can allow for movement of those who are affected negatively by the light if they are careful.

The Verdant Caverns are a large expanse of land controlled by the Verdant Hive, a vespid monarchy currently ruled by Queen [[Katiana]], and aided by her sisters, having replaced the former queen Melora when she abdicated the throne to leave [[Paradisium]].

	~~==History==~~		The Verdant Caverns are made up of a massive large central cavern, as well as multiple caverns and tunnels of varying heights along the main cavern and even some 'caves' in the main cavern itself, and is made of three distinct major biomes. Through all the area fresh water rivers, and the occasional lake can be found, all flowing inevitably to the [[Siren's Cove]], various black sand coves on a massive salt water lake that opens up into the [[Bending Seas]].
	~~Founded by the first Vespid Queen~~, ~~a Circle~~ of the ~~Swarm Druid who was trapped~~ in the ~~dungeon who used their magic to begin to grow~~ and ~~strengthen the scant vegetation~~. As the ~~Verdant Caverns~~, and the ~~Verdant Hive grew~~, ~~they became responsible for~~ the ~~growth of sunstone and moonstone crystals and the protection of the lands and crystals~~ that ~~became known as~~ the ~~Verdant Caverns~~.

	~~== Known Layout ==~~		The [[Wild Gardens]] is the main cavern, and a few of the smaller offshoots, and is most often a dense humid jungle, though some areas are thick forests and the odd clearing. Sunlight shines every hour of the day, though through the darkest parts of the dense jungles it can allow for movement of those who are affected negatively by the light if they are careful.
	The ~~Isle~~ of ~~Avalon~~ is ~~located in~~ the ~~center~~ of ~~four convergent areas~~, ~~being~~ the ~~crossroads between~~ the ~~Wild Gardens, Sirens Grotto, Twilight Groves, and [[Haunted Hollows]]~~.

	The Wild Gardens and ~~Twilight Groves border each other~~, ~~and dot into each other depending on~~ the crystals ~~provided~~, ~~both also border~~ the ~~Sirens Grotto as~~ the ~~rivers~~ and ~~lakes move down to the seas beyond~~.		The areas known as [[Twilight Groves]] are areas in isolated caverns or in the caves and under the mounds of the Wild Gardens. Gravel and stone provide home for various lichen and fungus that grow, some sending massive mushrooms that rival trees, or cover the ground in soft dark green. Some lack moon crystals all together at times. One cavern is of particular note, having constant moonlight equivalent of a full moon and area enough for those who are affected by the light of the moon to prowl and run freely.

	The ~~Wild Gardens~~ is ~~known to fade into the Haunted Hollows on~~ in ~~some areas~~, the ~~trees dark~~ and ~~twisted under the growing influence of~~ the Haunted Hollows~~. The border is monitored and protected~~.		The [[Isle of Avalon]] is a strange existence, existing in a perfect crossroad, where it is evenly bordered by the Wild Gardens, Twilight Groves, Sirens Grotto, and the Haunted Hollows, making it a perfect place for Fae trickery.

	~~The Sirens Grotto~~ is ~~part of the shorelines~~ to the [[~~Bending Seas~~]]~~, if one follows the coast far enough, they can come across [[Smugglers Cove]]. Along the shoreline~~, a ~~cave system~~ has been ~~carved out, providing access~~ to ~~the Steppe Fjord. On a smaller section of coast, almost completely enveloped in~~ the jungle ~~of the Wild Gardens is~~ the Mermaid Cove Resort.		A few other locations are specially tailored, somewhere in the caverns and jungles is known to be the [[Verdant Hive (Area_\|\|Verdant Hive]] itself, a special cavern has been tailored to bring the jungle right up to the sandy beaches that make up [[Mermaid Cove Resort]].

	~~Honeydew Valley~~ is ~~has a few connections to various~~ [[~~Kobold Dens~~]], ~~which provides border raids on food and for sexual conquest and~~ a ~~sharp~~ cliff ~~can theoretically be climbed to reach the Wild Gardens,~~ the ~~cliff is home to some variants~~ of ~~birds and aarakocra tribes, and is not an actual suitable method of travel for those who cannot fly. Finally, a stone bridge crosses a ravine to be able to transport goods to~~ the ~~Market Town.~~		The final major area that falls under the Verdant Hive's rulership is the [[Honeydew Valley]], connected by a steep cliff that drops from the largest of the Wild Garden's cavern, they are allowed to rule as a semi-autonomous state, able to manage itself with little interference.

	~~== Notable Locations ==~~
	~~The Verdant Caverns is a large~~, ~~sprawling area that is made up of smaller, notable areas, some of which~~ are ~~wild, others given over~~ to rule to ~~vassals as long as they follow the rules of the Hive~~.
