Emerald Graves

Emerald Graves is a location in Dragon Age: Inquisition. It is a forested area within the Dales in Orlais. The area is an ancient elven burial ground but has been partly occupied by Orlesians in more recent times.

Background
The southern half of the area is relatively civilized, marked with road signs and Orlesian estates, though these have fallen into disrepair during the Orlesian Civil War. Further into the forest however, the woods teem with wildlife. It is said that each tree is a reminder of a life lost during the Exalted March against the Dales. The area is home to many beasts such as wolves, halla, and nugs; many of these animals are unique creatures, such as giants, black wolves, great bears, and snoufleurs. The forest is also the location of scattered elven refugee camps.
