| Thornfur is the descendant of an awakened companion of a good witch who used to live in these forests. His great-grandparents are now long dead, as is the witch, but Thornfur and his pack still watch over the woods. Recently, he is facing two troubles which the pack have not been able to deal with - one is a huge assassin vine which has rooted itself in a glade, the other is the work of "the crooked man" who has done something which is flooding the swamp, and upsetting the balance in the woods. Having a hunch that this is the same as the "Plygar" that they are hunting, the party agree to help the wolves in both their requests.
They set out with the pack to the location of the assassin vine, and when they reach it the wolves charge straight in to the attack. Cursing, because they had hoped to make more of a plan of action the party charge in too, arming themselves mainly with handaxes (DMs note: The Plant subtype is immune to criticals - except from axes. Axes are allowed to score critical hits on plant creatures. After all, axes are built for chopping wood.)
The battle is fast and furious, half a dozen of the wolves are crushed and all the party are severely injured by the time they finally rob the horrible plant of its uncanny vitality. Lysander immediately runs round and checks the dying wolves, and calls upon Asura to stabilise those that he can, maintaining the core of the pack.
Thornfur leads them back to the hut and shows them healing herbs that the wolves all chew to help them to recover. The next morning Thornfur guides them to the flooded swampland, where the crooked man is up to some kind of evil.
