Publisher's blurb:
You have secured the area of the resistance base with your recent victories. Now, the rest of the Great Wild Wood must be secured and a new port south of it must be taken. The task will be difficult but Althaea has discovered that a powerful guardian could help you. She gives you a map. You must reach the center of the Great Wild Wood. Inside it is a huge and ancient tree surrounded by massive rocks. It hides a rune for awakening the sleeping guardian beneath it. The way there is dangerous. Some of the resistance forces will push east to aid and cover you but they can only do so for four days. If your mission takes longer than that, they will retreat and you will be stuck behind enemy lines. All is not uneasy. News of your victory has triggered all barbarians in Faerûn to march to the Hordelands. A few hundred thousand of them come each day. Their numbers give hope to our forces. Have courage but be vigilant. The hordes still surround us.
The party will reach its goal by land. You will travel east under the cover of a resistance attack. Flaming arrows and exploding fiery boulders will be fired upon you. The woods and skies are with you by Althaea’s aid. The cover and rain they give provide natural protection from most of the enemy’s artillery. Expect chaos and hazardous terrain. The port is our most important target. You may choose what goal to reach first. There’s one more thing. Althaea has strange visions about Spiderhaunt peaks. It would be wise to go there if time allows. She senses great power there.
