Oak Groves

Within the Jar forest and in isolated areas throughout the Eorldom of Gar  there are sacred Oak groves. These are druidic holy grounds, some are rumoured to also have a single large stone in the center of the grove with oghams of great power.
These are the holy shrines to Hyandis the great Protector and the consort of Beleryn. As such the Church of Urtos supports these sites and those who worship him. Amongst druids Hyandis is regarded as the All Father, Warden of the Forests and, regardless of a druid's own particular deity, they all observe the worship of Hyandis. Hyandis’ priests are always regarded as senior when druids meet one another. The monoliths at the center of the Oak groves and the many oghams carved on them represent the druidic teachings that have been passed down through the centuries and used to teach novice druids.
Many of the Druids in the Eorldom of Gar are not only followers of Hyandis but some of the highest ranking Hyandic Druids within the Kingdom of Urtind.
