Southwest Region of Amr. Thistle is thought to be the region where the humans of Tarnti first met the Akarian outlanders. The region remains of great interest to historians, though exploration of it has become prohibitively dangerous. Most of the exploration is done by the halfling villages that may be found throughout the lands. They are populated by mostly isolationist little folk with long lineages, some which may date to before the rise of the human civilization.
