Accepting Fothud's sacred duty, you feel a surge of ancient power coursing through your veins. The stones of the circle hum with energy as he bestows upon you the ability to commune with the spirits of nature. Suddenly, a fierce gust of wind swirls around you, carrying whispers of an impending darkness threatening the land. Before you stands Loingsech, a wise druid who senses the same ominous presence.
You made a choice whether to join forces with Loingsech or embark on your own to investigate. Now, as you stand at the stone circle with Loingsech, the air grows heavy with foreboding. The shadows lengthen, and strange noises echo through the misty moorland. Loingsech turns to you with a grave expression, his eyes filled with determination. 'The source of this encroaching shadow lies deep within the haunted woods,' he declares, beckoning you to follow him into the unknown.
