Tumarkhazad was a lowland spruce found only in Rûrîk.It grew to a height of about fourteen feet. Astoundingly uniform in appearance, these dwarf trees were carefully tended and cultivated by the Stonefoots so that their lower branches grew straight out. The limbs of adjoining Tumarkhazad interlocked, forming a canopy that was almost exactly five feet above the ground. This remarkably fire-resistant tree grew all over the Faliodukum river basin and permitted the Naugrim to move swiftly while under cover. More importantly, the Tumarkhazad forests impeded travel by large peoples.
