Rukia is a densely forested province at the southern coast of Palan that is divided into two by the Borough river and swamp. It is one of the most biodiverse forest areas on Auseka, containing tropical rainforests at the southern coast, seasonal tropical forests covering more than half of its area, but even some temperate deciduous forest in the north-west.

The region is most known, however, for it's "fifth season", also called spider season.

Spider Season

Between spring and summer, spiders multiply so aggressively near the rivers and coastline that their nets engulf trees and entire forest areas. Most of these are small spiders that are harmless to humans, but the sheer amount of nets is not only scary but can become dangerous when not looked out for. Only about a fifth of Rukia is actually covered as dense as shown here, but nevertheless the region has become famous for this yearly event that lasts about two months.
