    The Orn Wild

    Do we know anything about the Orn Wild? Looks like it could be a new area we go to based on the font and its position on the map?

    What we know mostly comes from the Sightseeing Log:

    A primeval forest that stretches across the northern reaches of the Dravanian hinterlands, its rich verdure sustained by the pristine waters of the Thaliak. Nigh untouched by the hand of man, its wilds stand between those who would make their way to Sharlayan without braving a trek across the forelands.

    Could we end up there? Perhaps! But it might also just be a bit of flavor to explain where certain new species came from and give a reason to create a scenery barricade in localized flight.

    I think it could one day become an Exploration Raid like Diadem.

    Send us in there with no map, no flight, maybe even make us go on foot through some areas.

    Look for ruins and things Tomb Raider style.

    I'd certainly support more exploration style content. And a jungle "nigh untouched by thenhamds of man" would be a perfect back drop.

    It could end up being a dungeon, I'd love a Diadem style exploration of it.

    We know that the man-eating plant Belladonna at the end of St. Mocianne's Arboretum comes from the Orn Wilds.

    "A carnivorous plant native to the Orn Wild, this voracious specimen of flora lures in potential victims by contorting its petals into the form of various beasts. Research conducted at Saint Mocianne's Arboretum concluded that the murderous Belladonna is as likely to prey upon two-legged victims as four."- Belladonna Card.

    Since the Thaliak River drains into it, there could be plenty of Sharlayan relics or Dalamud debris to be salvaged from it.
