Dunstan Copse

Named mainly after the Anglo-Saxon term 'Dunstan' meaning 'dark stone', much of this territory is desert-like with dark hued rocks littering the ground. Temperatures remain cool and constant throughout the year, with the loose sedimentary terrain soaking in the heat of the sun and providing warmth for any inhabitants during the night. Within this desolate moorland is a randomly placed cluster of gnarled trees, providing shelter and grass. Storms occur here every few days and often cause flooding throughout the land - excluding the grove of trees – and are the only source of water. The ground is thirsty however, so puddles and streams are quickly soaked up.
