The novel is set in Mossflower. Mossflower is a fictional, rural area that brings to mind the settings of Arthurian type stories. The woodlanders live in the forest, many of them in small homes until they are forced out by the cruelty of Verbauga. The woodlanders then move into Brockhall, the ancestral home of Bella of Brockhall. Kotir is the fortress where Tsarmina lives and from where she rules Mossflower.

The setting of the novel is an ancient, knights of the round table type of setting. The characters, while all animals, wield swords and bows and arrows to fight the oppression of their ruler, Tsarmina. The setting is romantic and dangerous, a setting that compliments the conflict that propels the plot of the novel. It is this reason that the setting of the novel works well with the plot.
