New Grove

New Grove is a new forest built up by a group of druids after a horrible skirmish between the orcs and the humans and some other parties whoe needlessly got involved. The old growth was burned and destroyed.
The druids do not let anyone in their grove without permission. Certain traders are allowed to travel through, and must be accompanied by a handful of druids. Those seeking ways to the Faewilds may find a portal here, but must have clearance from an arch-druid to go through. Wanderers are very rarely let in, unless a druid or seeking druidic knowledge. Some have been granted permission to travel through via gained trust and a few favours.
To prevent random intruders, druids and animal companions are always patrolling the borders.
