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

Template:Otheruses Template:Otheruses Template:Infobox Scenery 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 south-western region of Dragonwilds:Ashenfall, south of the Dragonwilds:Whispering Swamp and west of the Dragonwilds:Fractured Plains. The valley contains the 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 favoured 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.Template:CiteJournal What began as harmless folklore took a darker turn when the conflict with the Dragonwilds:garou intensified. As Bramblemead's demand for crossbows increased dramatically, families faced a choice between keeping their pets or acquiring the weapons they needed for defence. Most chose the latter.
