Description:
(kinda outdated...should be updated eventually)
The canopies of tall jungle trees are grown particularly large to allow the leaves closer to the trunk to be pruned away.
In these pruned canopies can be found the homes of Eresse.
These homes are furnished with minimalist wooden furniture.
Special care is taken with each and every canopy home so as not to overcrowd the tree or canopy.
Typically only one resident or family will reside in a canopy.
Should the canopy need to be expanded, the resident will assist the tree in growing larger and more lush, thus allowing more room in the canopy.
Great efforts are made to keep the land and foliage as intact as possible.

Situated between two rivers and bordered heavily by snowy fields, Eresse enjoys a cool climate year round.
Residents are typically advised to dress in several layers so that heat may be retained.

Residents of Eresse eat a varied diet of meats, grains, vegetables, and fruits.
These are often grown or gathered in the wildlands of the Sorrows.
Efforts are currently underway to convert several canopy tops into usable farmland, these efforts are slow-going.

One of the most common past times in Eress is stargazing.
While the Immortal Kings and Queens can be viewed from anywhere...
The treetop observatories in Eresss offer a vast, clear view of the night sky.
These observatories are open to the public - anyone whom is respectful is welcomed.

There are no monetary costs for the canopy-homes of Eresse.
However, reverent worship of the patron gods Sallana, Shalherana, and Hareth is required.
Abusing the land or vegetation can result in immediate banishment from Eresse.

Specialties:
Ni'p - An alcoholic beverage made by fermenting wakel rinds in a cool dark place. The taste is both sweet and bitter at the same time. It's alcoholic percentage can vary but is usually around 23%.
