	Following certain incidents involving cats and crossbow limbs, a superstition developed in Bramblemead that it was bad luck to house cats and crossbows together.

'''Bramblemead Valley''' is a [[Dragonwilds:Power level]] 2 area in [[Dragonwilds:Ashenfall]], [[Dragonwilds:Brynmoor]] located east of [[Dragonwilds:Temple Woods]].

==Description==
Bramblemead Valley is located in the southwestern region of [[Dragonwilds:Ashenfall]], south of the [[Dragonwilds:Whispering Swamp]] and west of the [[Dragonwilds:Fractured Plains]]. The valley contains the [[Dragonwilds:Bramblemead Village|village]] of Bramblemead, which is now abandoned and overrun with monsters. Goblins occupy the region, and rats infest the ruins. The once-fertile farmland is now bloodstained.

The valley landscape is predominantly green and forested, with several waterways running through it.

==History==
Bramblemead Valley was founded in the [[Dragonwilds:First Age]] by the god [[Dragonwilds:Guthix]] and his followers. During the Third Age, most of the settlement converted to the worship of [[Dragonwilds:Saradomin]].

Under Saradominist influence, the [[Dragonwilds:Keep of Blue Flames]] was constructed in the architectural style favored by Saradomin's followers, featuring an ordered shape to symbolize the god of order. The keep was governed by a local lord under the guidance of the high priest.

The valley was once a centre of human activity and learning in [[Dragonwilds:Ashenfall]], with institutions dedicated to magical research and monster hunting. Eventually, the area was abandoned and overrun by hostile creatures.

Following certain incidents involving cats and crossbow limbs, a superstition developed in Bramblemead that it was bad luck to house cats and crossbows together. The supposed reasoning ranged from practical concerns about feline safety to increasingly absurd fears, including the notion that cats might somehow develop opposable thumbs and weaponize crossbows against their owners.{{CiteJournal|journal=Iron Crossbow Limbs|quote=Following certain incidents with cats and crossbow limbs, a superstition began to build in Bramblemead about the danger of crossbows and felines.

{{journal entry|
Bramblemead valley is home to the village of its namesake, a once tranquil location bustling with life. It was founded in the first age by the god [[Dragonwilds:Guthix]] and his followers, and converted to the worship of [[Dragonwilds:Saradomin]] sometime in the third age.

The [[Dragonwilds:Keep of Blue Flames]], was built in the popular style of the Saradominist faithful. The ordered shape a symbol of the god of order's will. Powdered metals were cast into the braziers, so that the flames would burn in the hue favoured by Saradomin. Here the lord of the region would watch over the village and surrounding areas, under the careful guidance of the high priest of the church.

To the northwest stands a symbol of mankind's thirst for knowledge, a great guild dedicated to uncovering the secrets of the runes that had been first discovered on [[Dragonwilds:Ashenfall]] by Guthix himself. Here, powerful wizards learned spells and enchantments, pushing the boundaries of mankind's knowledge.

Ashenfall is rife with danger and the need for heroes has always been strong. A guild was created, to the east of [[Dragonwilds:Brynmoor]], where heroes and champions would gather together to seek out the deadliest monsters and slay them where they stood.

Once this valley was the hub of human activity, but now it sits silent, and overrun with monsters. Goblins spread across the region claiming it in the name of their new god. Rats swarm through the ruins with sharp and deadly fangs. Soil that was once fertile farmland, is now soaked to the roots in blood.

	Following certain incidents involving cats and crossbow limbs, a superstition developed in Bramblemead that it was bad luck to house cats and crossbows together. The supposed reasoning ranged from practical concerns about feline safety to increasingly absurd fears, including the notion that cats might somehow develop opposable thumbs and weaponize crossbows against their owners.{{CiteJournal\|journal=Iron Crossbow Limbs\|quote=Following certain incidents with cats and crossbow limbs, a superstition began to build in Bramblemead about the danger of crossbows and felines.
