Thornbrush Thicket

Thornbrush Thicket is both settlement and forest, self-governed by a goblin community outside the jurisdiction of the the Wildewatch Kingdom.
== Description ==
Within the dense forest south-west of Wildewatch, the goblin village of Thornbrush Thicket emerges like a hidden gem amidst the verdant foliage. Built amid the gnarled roots of towering trees and draped with lush greenery, the village exudes an air of wildness and untamed beauty.
The huts of Thornbrush Thicket are constructed from woven branches, leaves, and mud, blending seamlessly with the natural surroundings. Lanterns fashioned from glowing mushrooms cast a soft, ethereal light that dances across the village, illuminating the winding paths and shadowy corners.
At the heart of Thornbrush Thicket lies a communal gathering area, where goblins of all ages come together to socialize, trade, and celebrate. A central bonfire crackles and pops, sending spirals of smoke spiraling skyward, carrying with them the fragrant scents of herbs and forest blooms.
Surrounding the village are sprawling gardens tended by skilled goblin farmers, where rows of vibrant vegetables and herbs thrive under the gentle caress of sunlight filtering through the canopy above. In the distance, the tranquil melody of a bubbling brook can be heard, providing a source of fresh water and sustenance for the villagers.
Despite its humble appearance, Thornbrush Thicket is a bustling hub of activity, teeming with life and energy. The goblins move about with purpose, their keen eyes scanning the forest for signs of danger while their nimble fingers weave intricate patterns in the fabric of their daily lives.
Above all else, Thornbrush Thicket is a place of community and kinship, where bonds forged through adversity and triumph unite its inhabitants in a shared sense of belonging. As the party ventures into the heart of the goblin village, they are greeted not with hostility, but with curiosity and cautious optimism, for they are about to uncover the secrets that lie hidden within its enchanted confines.
==Settlers==
	Evys is a calm authority figure in the community of goblins who seeks to greet visitors upon their approach to ensure that there is no mistake over what they seek. His approach suggests that adventurers regularly arrive at their community with swords and shields, ready to clear the forests of evil goblins, despite their friendly and peaceful community.
	Habglin is an elderly goblin with powerful magic, known to have made a deal with the druid known as Niall Liosach to turn him into a goblin and protect him from divination magic from those seeking his location and fate following the faking of his death. In the community, she runs a modest business selling adventuring gear and gives out enchanted business cards that can be used in the wilds to summon one of her stalls for a temporary period.
	Itolmia is a ranger of Thornbrush Thicket, a young and rash woman who was seen to be quick into action and chasing the slavers of the Feydark that sought to entangle her in rope and steal her away.
	Sliort is a nervous and scatty young goblin, though well-trained with the blade and clearly has a knack for sleight of hand and hiding in the shadows, though such skills lesser needed in the community of goblins he now finds himself in.
	Yrd is a wizened wizard of the community who has shown to pack a powerful arcane magic as a spellcaster with a unique form of magic in the way he casts in melee, using his fists to unleash powerful magic on his enemies.
