Yeah sorry I was making that assumption that the Rak'Tika Greatwood is the name inhabitants have for what outsiders call the Golmore Jungle.

True it could be just a specific region so if it saves farther confusion I'll go back an edit it to
Rak'Tika Greatwood ("near where" the Orbonne Monastery is located)
if that helps?

Some of which because of how light and dark are distributed across shards, I can see some changes but,
I guess the answer to that question would be to look at buildings in Australia over time.

When Europeans Initially colonised they build buildings like those found back at home ignoring the fact it was a different climate. Over time building design developed to suit the climate there.

yes the implication is that the 1st shard is the most similar shard to the source at the time of HW.

What I'm trying to getting at is Il Mheg isn't just a "zone". People focusing to hard on just what they see in the area we were given a guided tour of in fanfest and ignoring the hole of Il Mheg we where given in the keynotes. It was broken up throughout the keynotes I guess.

Il Mheg - The Pixies - Titania

Are all tied up as one bundle. A zone "Il Mheg" the denizens of are "The Pixies" whos regent/?primal? is "Titania".

the middle The pixies had four points to them ;

-Reside in Il Mheg
-Proficient in the Arcane Arts
-Tricksters
-Speak a unique language known as "FAE"

These Pixies aren't just your average "beast tribe". The last point being the biggest to point that out . Adding another language seems like a huge undertaking for "just" another beast tribe. It also puts the Pixies on par with Dragons in regard to time invested in their creation. From that it seems liking the ShB expansion will revolve heavily around the Pixies like HW did for Dragons.
