Description
Fangorn is the name of Treebeard, the oldest Shepherd of the Trees ... or Treebeard is the name of Fangorn, he is not quite certain which came first! One may wonder who is older: Treebeard or Tom Bombadil?
Treebeard, the Ent, once over saw forests which stretched from one edge of Middle-earth to the other. According to Elrond: "Time was when a squirrel could go from tree to tree from what is now the Shire to Dunland west of Isengard." Of this vast forest, according to Treebeard, Fangorn Forest was "just the East End". And indeed, players have rescued a walking tree in Bindbole Wood, in the North Farthing in the quest Web-cutter.
