Achmad- The people of Achmad live in the trees of the forest to the east. They are mostly artisans who make fine and detailed wood work and sell their wares to all the territories. The fairies are short tree dwellers who have always lived in these forest and despite their stubborn tendencies, have come to live as one with the humans of the woods. They do not meddle in the affairs of the planes people of Tine out of fear of losing their home to their fires. It is sometimes a tense situation, but they have lived like this for many generations and know that it is best to simply keep the peace with that particular group. The people who live on the waters of Iske are very poor but the forest people appreciate their wares and trade with them often. They respect their natural way of living. The forest people hate those that live in Mittal, feeling that their mines are a danger to the earth and should be stopped. They are not war faring people and do not have the means to stop them, but that doesn’t stop them from making a scene whenever they get the chance. They do not like the people living in the maintains because they trade with the mines of Mittal. They also are hatted on the basis of a time old rivalry between elves and fairies, as the land there is inhabited by many elves.
The land of Achmad is dominated by towering trees and lush green plants. For the people of Achmad trees and nature are sacred to them. They only cut down the trees that they must to make their homes. As a result their houses are built around the trees, as not to disturb them. Some families live on the ground whle others take to the upper levels of the trees as their homes.
