Haghaven is a place where many magical beings go to escape the world outside. The people here are rarely welcoming, but that does not matter. If you are within its streets, you are there because you are looking for one of two things; sanctuary…or change.
As you emerge from the Midnight woods, following the river, you see it: A cluster of stout huts and cottages forming an odd settlement. No two buildings are the same. Some are made from gingerbread, others from rosewood. Still others are fashioned from iron and ice. They line the streets like strange animals, huddled together around cook fires like great migrating beasts.
Most of the locals appear to be women of all ages. They go about their Buisness paying you little heed, Hanging laundry or stirring cauldrons. The few that do notice your presence, give you icy stares. One green-skinned hag, sits on an upturned bucket, peeling dead toads and lets out a mad cackle as you pass.
Eventually, you find yourself amidst a fairy market - the buildings made from giant colourful mushrooms. The air is bright with fireflies and the intoxicating scent of an ever bloom dominates the square.
Furthur still, you find the winding river flows into ice. The area is blanketed by frost and snow, pierced by a frozen tower that stands high above the trees. This must be the home to the winter queen…the ruler of the Frostlands.
South of the winter queen’s domain lies the newest residents of the town’s populous. The crimson carnival is home to all manner of strange performers and exhibits. What brings them to this secluded settlement however, who can say?

Hey everyone! Appologies for the long delay in posts! I was quite ill for the past couple of weeks with a fever. Am feeling much better now.
I thought I’d share this map I have been working on from my own campaign. The players have gone to visit a ”town of witches” in the feywild! I’ve included both marked and unmarked versions if you want to download them. The above list is the names and info for the locations I’ve used, but feel free to make up your own!
I’ll be back to posting more of the magical drinks very soon now that I’m recovered.
