I think this is a small enough project to actually keep me from procrastinating and actually produce something fun. ---

Very excited for this jam. I’ve been a passive fan of the channel for a few months but with this little challenge I’m ready to get my hands dirty and actually try some of this myself! What’s the app you’re using to create that board/take those notes? It looks nice. ---

The app is [weje.io](http://weje.io). I believe it is fully free now so make an account and give it a whirl! ---

I had a bit of inspiration tonight! I’ve been mulling over names for places and things. It wasn’t the name I was looking for but it’s a name that I need and I like it! 😁 The common name is “ **The Gray Fens**.” This is a corruption of an older name, _The Graef Fenha_, which meant the graveyard swamp. This is the hex with the flooded ruins, home to the corrupted ent and the swamp zombies. ---

Last one for the night… ![IMG_1388](https://forums.hexed.press/uploads/default/original/2X/3/36d900a5eec70c5a0c80e1992a0d181ee12297d0.webp) The corrupted sapient tree in the Gray Fens is called **Old Sally’s Daughter**. Like the name of the swamp, this is also a corruption of an older name. In this case, it was originally called _Sally Dauthr_, the Dead Willow. ---

Wrote a poem for our entish friend: > Alone in grim Grey Fens, Old Sally’s Daughter stands. > Under a misty shroud, she stoops still proud. > Auburn are her dresses, pale green are her tresses. > From her crown hang the drowned, ancient lovers dangling down. > She dances ‘round the fen in her finery of dead men > To voices none can hear save those to whom death is near. > For the eyes of the doomed, beneath the bone white moon. > For a last love’s embrace, Old Sally’s Daughter waits. ---
