The Druids of the Emerald Grove are led by [[Kagha]] who serves as the leader of the druids in First Druid [[Halsin]]'s abscence. They are providing a temporary refuge for the [[Tiefling Refugees]] from [[Elturel]], though tensions are high. The Grove is on high alert due to the aggression of nearby [[goblin]]s. Kagha has ordered the [[Rite of Thorns]] be performed to shut the grove off, which would displace the Tieflings. | The Druids of the Emerald Grove are led by [[Kagha]] who serves as the leader of the druids in First Druid [[Halsin]]'s abscence.
