Archet Dale is an area within Bree-land in the central region.

This secluded and serene vale is most known for being the Starter Area for new Hobbit and Race of Man characters, where that aforementioned calmness quickly gets flipped on its head. Recently a large band of brigands, calling themselves the Blackwolds, have set camp in some old ruins at the eastern outskirts where they plot bigger and more evil plans than the denizens of the dale are accustomed to.

The only connection to Bree-land by road goes through a narrow passage southwards via Combe though access to the Eastern Bree-fields and Chetwood can be achieved by traversing the wilderness.

This area provides almost no services, except for some vendors and class trainers in Archet. However, some renowned individuals have settled at Archet and at the Hunting Lodge, hence expert adventurers are travelling by every now and then.
