Sentry Marion:
If you go south of here, there is a very large swamp. They say that it was created as a side effect of the black magic used in the war with the Elves. Unpleasant monsters live there.
If you go a little farther down from there, you will come to the Neutral Zone, which was created by an agreement with the Elves. If you go east from there, you will come to the Elven Forest where the arrogant Elves live. They are a race that thinks they are the most noble in the world.
