A darkness has crept into the northeastern reaches of the Gnarly Forest, twisting the natural order and endangering the village of Five Oaks. Once a noble guardian of the wilds, a mighty treant has succumbed to a fate feared by the elves—naur-faug, the demented rage. No longer a keeper of the forest, it now rampages through the woodlands, tearing apart the very land it once protected.
There is only one way to stop it.
This adventure blends combat and diplomacy, offering challenges that can be overcome through cunning, strategy and negotiation. At its heart, it is a tale of nature’s cycle—of death and renewal—where even the mightiest beings must one day fall. Perfect for a druid or ranger, though welcoming to all adventurers, this journey will test not just strength, but wisdom, empathy and the courage to stand against a force that was never meant to be an enemy.
The balance of the Gnarly Forest teeters on the edge. Will your heroes restore harmony, or will they be swallowed by the chaos of a guardian turned destroyer?
