The Great Forest of Khambakhand covers much of north-eastern Asdauria.

Khambakhand, more commonly known as the Great Forest of Khambakhand, is a great region in north-eastern Asdauria, covered with boreal forests and swamps which rests south of the tundra region just before the Boreal Ocean around the north pole. To the west of the Khambakhand are the woodlands of Osfandia which share many of the same fauna and flora. Included within the Khambakhand is the Tatsurochio Sea and part of Orogurnia. Most of Khambakhand is a trackless forest and populated with all manner of wild beasts and humanlikes. There are however, some indigenous human tribes who practice a shamanic religion and rely on a hunter-gatherer lifestyle. Most of Khambakhand remains uncharted, especially since it lies outside of any reliable caravan or merchant routes. Eastern Khambakhand rests north of the Shwok Shanya Mountains of Sungo and there are many Sungotine folktales about the great woodland.

Much of our modern knowledge about this region comes from Ariglas dhal Cethaig, an Asbardian who explored parts of the forest in the late twenty sixth and early twenty seventh centuries.
