Lying under the town of Redwood an ancient series of tunnels and caves stretch for miles, enveloping the area with lush, exuberance plant life. Its properties while studied are widely unknown.

=== Founding of Redwood ===
Many years ago the cave was rediscovered after years of being dormant. Gummy and Fredrick quickly found the area after meeting up in the nearby town of [[Archive:Invictus|Invictus]]. They immediately knew something about the area was different and set up a small campsite. A few days after the discovery of the area Fredrick noticed vines around the tents were growing extraordinarily quickly even after being cut. Gummy soon took a very keen interest to this phenomenon and decided to study it. In order to study these strange events a more permanent settlement was created and named [[Archive:RedWood|Redwood]].

===== Fights and Sacrifices =====
[[File:Cave painting.png|thumb|A picture of one of the giant fights found in one of the second generation rooms (''Drawn by CVHRedstone'')]]Due to the magical properties which some religious figures learned to tap into a cult like presence around the location was developed on the surface. Disputes between Kings that were settled by combat, would happen on the fields deciding the fate of politics, family's and the delict balance of religious superiority. Besides single combat there is also mortal vs giant fights, dragged in chains from [[Archive:mount Xeno|mount Xeno]] and central [[Archive:Arith|Arith]]. Fights against giants always led to the mortal dying, never in the known history was a giant beaten. Giant vs Giant fights also happened, ending with the victor giant being released. For mortal giant's a poison called Giant's Fall was used to kill any troublesome Giant's or the winners should the crowds not be happy with the fight. Wars or large scale sacrifices would often lead to overload in the caves output which could result changes in plant life, mining and terrain above and below ground. All of this is known due to the paintings of giant fights that have been found in the different rooms.

=== First Blood ===
''<u>First Blood</u>'' is a crystal forged weapon that is used by [[Archive:Fred book|Fredrick]] this is a weapon that uses a crystal that was influenced by blood. This sword was originally built for captain of the Redwood garrison, an ultimate war machine for the defense of Redwood, however due to his untimely death it went into the hands of Fredrick. When this sword cuts someone the wound opens up bigger then any normal sword strike allowing more blood to flow from the wound. It is rumored the crystal that this sword uses was made because a miner somehow got hurt and the blood was absorbed.

== The Battle of Redwood ==
As the first great war came to a close one of the last major battles took place in Redwood. Elyrian forces gathered around the surrounding area before the fighting began. Redwood and Lethonian fighters defended Redwood best they could, the death toll was huge on both sides of the war and due to the caves interesting properties, as well as the large scale explosive warfare, lead to massive changes in redwood terrain and the power output of the cave. Surrounding some of outer Redwood springs and new, lush plant life appeared, smaller streams and rivers lead to the northern lake, the red lake, and the sea to the south. Inside the cave massive changes took place do to explosives and the new energy increase which also led to new rooms and mineshafts being discovered.
