While in some wilderness, the PCs are approached by a grizzled, old, illiterate Druid (named Adams)...

Ah, my fellow travelers of the land. As I'm sure you've also felt, there is a disturbance in Nature. Sadly, a member (Croo Magnoo) of my order (The Order of the Hairy Paw) previously a grandly esteemed druid, has gone gold... greedy and selfish and corrupt. Alas, he has sunk so deep that he has become a gardener in the rose patches belonging to the local Duke (Duke Ellington). Doing Natures work conditionally, say only if you get paid or get laid, is Naturally unacceptable. Combined with such an obvious practice of mono-culture (imagine only wanting roses around!) is nothing less than blasphemy towards the diversity which Nature is. Bring me Croo dead or alive, and you shall have Nature's plentiful gratitude.

Now, during the last couple of years, the local economy has been booming because of the rosebud extract that has been produced with the aid of our "runaway" druid. This means that should the wanted druid be removed, the list of annoyed parties includes, but is not limited to, the duke, the local workforce, local rosebud wholesalers and even perfume merchants in the capitol.
