Durthu

Durthu is the eldest Treeman Ancient of Athel Loren.[1b]
History
He recalls a time when the Elves did not dare walk within his forest.[1b]
After the War of the Beard and Elves began to live in Athel Loren, a band of Dwarf explorers found their way to his glade, felling many trees and even taking the axe to him thinking he was nothing more than a especially large oak. Durthu still retains scars from that incident and it drove a burning hatred of any outsiders.[1b]
Over the millennia, this hatred has faded but he spends more time awake than the other elder treemen, waiting for a foe to show itself. [1b]
When the Lichemaster Heinrich Kemmler infiltrated Athel Loren in 2497 IC, seeking to raise the dead from a ancient barrow complex, the renegade Branchwraith Drycha was forced to sing him from slumber to combat the Necromancer at the Battle of the Cairns.[1a]

Quotes
| There was once a place beneath Durthu's ancient husk where wisdom and compassion once flourished, and all were better for it. But that is gone now, purged by centuries of malice and war. What remains of Durthu's heart now beats only to avenge. |
