  • Ages-Echoing WisdomArdenweald · Level 10-56

    Hmph. Even if I wanted to give her weapons, I cannot. My glade is under attack! Most of my people were driven out during the attack on the growthworks but a few of the elders stayed behind. Whether to delay the enemy or see the friends to safety, they are not here where it is safe.

  • The Sweat of Our BrowArdenweald · Level 10-56

    Ah, an outsider! You are perfect for this task. The spriggans are known for their mischief. They have been cursing our tools and supplies and trapping unsuspecting workers! Like our curses, they must obey the rules.
