Dorollin's Flower

These marshes are found almost at the western end of the Withywindle river, before it leaves the forest for the open land and empties itself into the Brandywine River. An exceptionally large stump stands central in the marshland with particularly angry bears wading in and out of the waters.

Tales tell that it was here that one of the entwifes entered the forest and yet today a great and tall flower marks her memory, named Dorollin's Flower.

Lore

"This area is just south of Old Muddyfoot's Hill. Be careful where you step here, since the mud can get a good grip on your feet - I've squelched back home on many summer days, tracking muddy prints through the whole forest. Come to think of it, this is probable where Old Muddyfoot got his name, whoever he was. If you can work your way east and north along the Withywindle from here, you'll find a cottage, but you are probably better off avoiding it. The Man who lives there isn't very friendly. If you keep bearing northerly, you'll eventually be able to go west to the Bonfire Glade or east to Bald Hill." — Guide to the Old Forest
