Forest Folk Glyphs on the Tomb's Trees

Old script on old bark, naming this hill a place where the Folk still come to remember.

Category
Clue

Faint, worn glyphs carved into the trees that ring the Exterior of the Green Lord's Tomb — Forest Folk script (Book II p.152), marking the hill as a place of reverence.

A Present a discovery example: the GM frames it as the PCs approach, then waits for the questions to surface what the glyphs actually say.

What the glyphs mark

  • This is a sacred site
  • They reference the premnitsi ("the receivers") and the istina (the "truth" — possibly "oracle")

When PCs investigate

Know Things or Seek Insight on the glyphs surfaces that the Forest Folk treated the Green Lord interred here as an oracle — petitioning it for knowledge, treating it as a fickle and dangerous god. This reframes the entire site: not a tomb to be looted, but a shrine that ancient priests consulted.

Opens hooks for Blodwen's interest in the Forest Folk specifically.
