Birnaum is one of the four sacred groves within [[Saor]], land of the [[Baumeni]]. Birnaum was discovered at the same time as [[Birken]], and the two groves are considered to be sister groves. The two groves are the first of the four, with [[Kirshl]] coming much later, and [[Feigel]] being planted only very recently. Birnaum consists primarily of large pear trees with darker bark, oversized roots, and white flowering blossoms. The pears come in greens, yellows, and pinks  

The groves are an important cultural fixture in Baumeni society, serving as a destination for pilgrimage, a shelter in time of need. Many baumeni travel to the grove to meditate and commune with the ancient spirit within the grove. Visiting all four of the groves in order is a rite of passage for young baumeni once they are old enough to understand the visions experienced when communing with the great trees

The visions experienced when communing with the great tree in Birnaum involve the birth and early history of the [[Ulfar]]. They cover the development of the Ulfar from their initial savage state, up through the first contact with the baumeni, and the Ulfar's involvement with the outside world in the Iron Age. Young baumeni that experience these visions often leave feeling an ineffable bond with the ulfar
