The Laeto Rainforest sits snugly in the middle of Canelux. It is large and dense, full of flora and fauna from the lowest ground to the tallest canopy. The foliage here is known to shine brightly of all colors when hit by light, especially during the beginning and end of the rainy season. Sadly this beauty is not always enough to merit a visit in the eyes of others. Often, the humid air and prevalence of threats in the Laeto Rainforest keep many travelers away.

In spite of this aversion, however, the rainforest is not uninhabited by sentients. There are many types of tribes in the area, usually hostile, that wander around within its borders, abducting females for wives and attacking other tribes over food and water. Most of them live in ruins deep within the forest that once belonged to kingdoms lost long before their current generations were alive, but still, others live in kapok tree houses far off the ground in other areas of the forest.

Travelers through Laeto often deal with these people as their primary threat, though they are not the only danger present in the trees. The fauna of Laeto are also far from harmless. For example, while the rivers of Laeto are beautiful and plentiful, connecting the heart of the forest to the oceans nearby, they are filled with predators. Crocodiles, piranhas, giant leeches: you name it. There are plenty of nasties in those waters that would like to take off a limb or two from unwary adventurers. On land, there are also poisonous critters, predatory plants, giant ant mounds, lions, tigers, bears, and, oh my, much worse. Diseases are also present, making the rainforest quite a dangerous place to be for the unprepared.

But there are plenty of riches to be had in this area for those brave and skilled enough to make the journey. Many products - such as mahogany wood, giant bee honey, cacao beans, and the exotic durian fruit - are highly desirable products across all of Revaliir, and most grow only in this area. Mamlak, in particular, makes a great profit off of harvesting the forest’s riches and refining them into artisan goods. Even if foraging isn’t your thing, there are rumors of treasure that remains in the hands of some of the tribes at the center of Laeto, but good luck to those who seek to pry it from their hands. You’ll need it.

It happened long before this new generation of Gods ascended in the lands of Revaliir. The reigning Goddess Who Turns the Tides got mad at her husband. He laid in bed with an elvish girl in the rainforest. The Goddess sent a river ripping through the lands wiping away the village, her husband, and all those in her wrath. What laid in her wake were large falls carved into the land that spread for what seemed like miles.

Though the falls had a violent beginning they are quite serene now. From little trickles to roaring water there is much to find here. The pool for the waterfalls is beautiful with its crisp clear water. The river stones that lie in the pool shimmer from the light of the sun during the day while the pool reflects the two moons at night.

Certain areas of the waterfalls umbrella out. The surface of these stone umbrellas is covered with thick moss. Water trickles down and creates a nice beautiful place to watch the forest around. Further back as the waterfalls go inward the falls get to a grander scale. Roaring water is at the furthest point in compared to the earlier falls.

Steam from the crashing water rolls out quite far until it disappears completely. Tiny fish inhabit the pool and they can be helpful in taking away dead skin off one’s body. Rainbows spark off every time the sun hits just right on the falls creating light shows that dazzle and amaze.
