The first hex in the northern forest was explored. You killed multiple twig blights, some needle blights, and one vine blight. you found a broken druidic ritual circle that had protective and seal based runes and symbols around it.
You ventured far and found a cave entrance with a large blighted Shambling Mound guarding it, and lots of twig blights present.
You fled and were able to tell the rest of Tower Haven about the location
