A southern forest whose name translates to "watching eyes," a reference to the sensation all visitors report of being observed from within the trees. The forest is not hostile, exactly, but it is unsettling. Animals fall silent when travelers approach. Branches seem to track movement. The feeling of scrutiny never quite fades.

The Amverela avoid Ojos Goros when possible and refuse to discuss it when asked. Local legends speak of something that dwells in the forest's heart, not a creature exactly but an awareness. What it watches for, no one knows. What it would do if it saw something concerning is a question best left unanswered.
