The upper forests of Gehenna are a twisting maze of ruined infrastructure overgrown and teeming with life. As its name suggests, the upper forest is suspended miles above the ground. This part of the forest has an extreme amount of verticality. Predators can pounce from above, and the threat of falling is always looming. All it would only take a crumbling walkway, a weak root, or a distracted step in the heat of a fight to meet a terrible end below. Despite the hazards posed, the upper forest is the best way to traverse the land as it is easier to navigate than the canopy, and safer than the layers of biomes below.

Lighting is usually not an issue so long as you aren't inside one of the various super structures that litter the world. Temperature is fairly hot and humid with temperatures on average getting up to 95°F (35°C) during the day, and 68°F (20°C) during the night. Water can sometimes be difficult to acquire as most of it falls into the depths below. What little water that does collect in the upper forest is often home to animals who can do great harm to thirsty travelers. Civilizations that live in the upper forest usually set up rain catchers to obtain clean drinking water as sunshowers and rain storms are a common occurrence in most parts of the world.

Here, you can see the upper forest's version of a clearing. The twisting maze of roots and ruin give way to a breathtaking view as a lone deer can be seen grazing in the distance.


A phenomenal piece made for me by  Elkir who went all out on the fine detail. Honestly I'm at a loss on how to express how much I love this.

This is the first of hopefully many pieces depicting the setting my various OC's live in. This is the upper forest, the "safest" of the biomes when it comes to threats to life.
