Hollow of the Brooding Oak

After a tense skirmish beneath the forest canopy — the party driving back a vine blight that sought to strangle their path and finally felling an awakened tree that had stood as a jealous sentinel — they comb the tree's hollow and the tangles where the blight had nested. Inside are useful, natural goods and a few personal items: sap and heartwood carved with old druidic marks (suggesting a druid or woodsman once used this tree as a cache), woven vine cordage and seed stores the blight had been hoarding, and a small coin pouch hidden beneath moss. Nothing here is overtly powerful magic, but several items would be prized by herbalists, rangers, or a crafty party looking to make alchemical reagents or sell to a local druidic circle.
