The '''Emerald Grove''', also known as ''Silvanus' Grove'' and ''Druid's Grove'', is in the north-east. It encompasses the large cavern known as the [[The Hollow]], and the [[Sacred Pool]].


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 goblins. Kagha has ordered the [[Rite of Thorns]] be preformed to shut the grove off, which would displace the Tieflings.
