Suruth Common Forest

Suruth Common Forest was located in Kurald Galain on the western shore of the Dorssan Ryl south of Kharkanas. Amidst the two-millennia-old Blackwood trees was the vast clearing of Suruth Common with its ancient basalt altar.Toll the Hounds, Chapter 12, US SFBC p.459/460 It was said to be the last fragment of old forest left in all of Kharkanas since blackwood was used to fire the forges of war.Toll the Hounds, Chapter 12, US SFBC p.460
==In Toll the Hounds==
During the Tiste Andii civil war, Endest Silann was sent by the High Priestess of Darkness to witness a meeting in Suruth Common between Anomander Rake, Silchas Ruin, and Andarist. The three men talked of a secretive plot that involved mitigating between the warring Drethdenan and Vanut Degalla and forming a pact with Hish Tulla and Manalle. Andarist's role called for him to walk away and do nothing, while Silchas was called on to betray him.Toll the Hounds, Chapter 12, US SFBC p.459-462
==In Fall of Light==
At the northern end of the forest was a statue sculpted by the Azathanai whose entire body was made up of faces with stubborn, fierce expressions. The poet Gallan claimed the statue was named Denial.Fall of Light, Chapter 10, US HC p.287
