Since the shadow fell over Greenwood the Great your people have been repeatedly driven northward by the taint that grows within the forest. You remember when your folk retreated from the homes around the Emyn Duir the mountains that are now know as the Emyn-nu-Fuin, the Mountains of Mirkwood. Now a blighted place the home of spiders, orcs and other foul creatures the mountains are a constant source of danger to your people and other folk who brave the forest path. You have worked long and hard for many years to track and kill as many foul creatures that come north from the mountain range and encroach on the Woodland Realm. You have also at times followed and helped those of fair demeanor who have wandered from the path and set them on their way.
