When the gods slew Mormo, Queen of Witches, and scattered her body across the land, her evil heart fell into the depths of the peaceful Hornsaw Forest, saturating the ancient woodland with her blood.
Now, twisted by Mormos taint, all manner of aberrations walk the forests sunless trails, while the Gorgons, Hags and other servitor races of the Witch Queen make strongholds as they attempt to revive Mormo herself.
Only the terminally foolish or desperate brave such a forbidding region.
