Fertile Plains
From HoAWiki
The Fertile Plains is a region in Ardania for heroes to explore once they have purchased the map to the area from the Rangers Guild in Valmorgen. The plains are a little bit more difficult than the Central Plains, but contains several valuable items. The Fertile Plains lead towards East Cheswick and the Dark Forest.
In-game description: The over-sized flora of the Fertile Plains seems to attract creatures that are more dangerous than what is found in the neighbouring Central Plains. Many have taken up residence in the ancient ruins that are scattered and hidden in the region's huge vegetation.
