Greenwood Reach
Formerly the lair of Kozhun and his mate, this city in the south-central Ikelan Colony Lands fell into ruin when the Tyrant left it in about 250 BC, a hundred years or so after his mate was assassinated (in the Prime Timeline). It lay fallow until ~248 AC, when archaeologists from Ikela began to excavate. They were stymied by the layers of timeline breakage present. After many shenanigans in 251 AC, Tempus Machina put an end to the time bubbles and altered the timeline slightly. Since then, the archaeologists have begun their efforts in earnest.
Places
Most of the city is currently (as of 254 AC) still in ruins. The only settlement is Camp Greenwood, a ramshackle conglomeration of buildings where the bizarre mix of archeologists, time-lost denizens of the city from several timelines, adventurers, and local zandolit tribesmen mix. Its population is roughly 750 souls.
All traffic in and out comes through Last Landing, the southernmost fully-navigable point on the Jalshea River before it is broken up by a series of cataracts falling off the plateau; these goods are then carried overland several miles to Camp Greenwood.
Two ancient, artificial reservoirs, the Bai-aankh (shown as #1 on the map) and the Dahi-aankh (shown as #2) pull water from local springs and remain clean due to magics dating to the Tyrant's era. They spill out in two large streams, one to the east and one to the west, which move through canalworks that still hold decent amounts of water.
Silver Wing Square is so-called due to the enormous statues of Kozhun and his silver-hued mate Aluadi. The old city's central administrative district was there, huddled against the southern wall. Further up to the south-west is Kozhun's old lair, a thoroughly cursed place.
Administration
Camp Greenwood and the archeological dig is ruled by a mayor and council. The mayor is responsible for most of the mundane affairs; the council handles research matters and disputes.
The mayor as of 254 AC is the (half) succubus who goes by Ahalya. Her mother was summoned by a mage, who then fell in love with her. She openly displays her nature, and uses her beauty and sexuality as a weapon to keep the fractious population mostly moving in the same direction. Known to be an ally of Tempus Machina. Actually pretty fair and normal of a person, underneath the flash and glamour.
The council is composed of three senior scholars: Jae, Alisha, and Raelan, all of whom were chosen because they were out of the room when the nominations were held. The only real power they have is control over the good rations and some sweets baked by Old Mara, the town's grandmother figure.
Threats
The city remains in ruins, and remnants of the corrupted forces of the Adversary and time-lost monsters remain throughout, not to mention the physical hazards of a crumbling, jungle-eaten city.
