This island, which is covered in dense woodland, is the home of the Centaurs. Many deciduous trees grow here along with a variety of fruit trees, herbs, spices, wild vegetables and general plant scrub.
To the North of the isle the woodland is a little denser, but other than that, the array of plant-life is unchanged throughout the whole of the island.
The Centaurs themselves are also evenly distributed across the island. They have no build structures as they believe that they should live as nature intended them to.
To the South of the island there is a very special beach named 'The Walk of Men'. This beach is where the centaur gather bi-annually for their 'Celebration of Worth'.
This celebration involves a curious natural event that takes place at The Walk of Men.
For a whole week , twice a year, a small strip of land rises and creates a path that can be walked along to the mainland. The path is long and takes 3 days to cross but it is part of Centaur culture. The path also does not rise completely out of the water. In most places it is still knee-deep though in others it can sometimes mean that centaurs must travel through water that reaches the human half of their body. This does not cause problems though as the path hosts no dangers. Large predators are not found in the sea surrounding the paths and even stray skarks would be put off by both the shallowness of the water and the fact that the centaur travel in groups.
The path links up to the mainland in the woodland of the betrothed. The actual path itself forms at the place where the distance between Feral Woods and the Woodland of the Betrothed is the least from the Southeast half of the island.
