The Hidden Vale appears almost impossible.

Autumn colors persist beyond their proper season.

Light behaves beautifully.

Visitors often become distracted.

This may not be accidental.

Auresor is associated with beauty, memory, and perception.

The dragon's territory inspires artists.

Poets.

Painters.

And occasionally very confused cartographers.
