If the party has travelled far to the east into the lands of Seys they probably will run across a great forest of hanged men. This monstrosity is the work of the corrupted and evil druids that have left Rowan and joined the ranks of the Grey God. The party cannot enter these woods. If the party mentions this to Rowan he will tell the party to speak to the Ents. The Ents are located in the great woods north of Portenys centered around (26,52). Rowan will teach the party the knack of speaking with Ents. The Ents will become enraged at the devastation of their fellow trees and will march with the party to do battle against the evil druids and their corruption of nature at the gallowgaes.

The Ents will fight against the mighty undead trees while the party is asked to enter the Wasting Tower and battle the druids. They will need to destroy the noxious elements which the druids use to animate the trees above by seeking out the four groups of druids and their plant allies in their subterranean passage ways.

Once the undead trees lose their animation the Ents above will destroy the Wasting Tower. They will reward the party with a belt granting power over plant life. It is used to allow passage past the Black Thorns in the Fomorian Tower (6,52). The Ents will take their leave but will return as allies in the Great Battle in the lands of the Shadowgaunt.

The party can now enter Skullkeep, home of the High Priest of the Grey God and the town of Pengelly which has come under the sway of the Grey God's followers.
