Laurelorn Forest (province)

:For the minor faction, see Laurelorn, for the building see Laurelorn Forest (Landmark).
Laurelorn Forest is a province introduced in Total War: Warhammer II in its Mortal Empires campaign, with The Empire Undivided Update. In The Realm of Chaos, the province was renamed to The Witch's Wood, though the settlement name remains the same.
==Background==
Laurelorn Forest is a forest in the northwestern Empire which is inhabited by a splinter group of Wood Elves, far away from Athel Loren.
Laurelorn Forest lies at the northern coastline of the Empire of Man, home to reclusive communities of Eonir. While both Middenland and Nordland claim the forest as theirs, the Elves dare either to try to enforce their claim. It lies west of Salzenmund and the Silver Hills above it, and stretches west to the borders with the Wasteland.
The Elves of Laurelorn are isolationist, wanting to be left alone in the beautiful woods they have come to call home. Unlike Men, who seek to tame the lands in which they live, the Elves of Laurelorn regard the forest and its land as a living thing, something they should live in harmony with, something over which they feel protective. They do, however, recognize that Mankind provides the bulwark of the defence of their lands against Greenskins and Chaos, so they try not to antagonize the surrounding realms of the Empire, unless they try to establish dominion over Laurelorn itself.
