The Greensprig Wanderers

Hidden deep beneath the folds of leaves and tree canopy, a group of nomads travel, roaming over every inch of the Seathen Woods. Rarely seen, not much is known of these traveling nomads. There is much speculation upon why these woodsmen choose solitude from others. The most popular theory is the Greensprig Wanderers are a group of outcasts, driven from their homes due to rare diseases or their association with evil magics. Other tales, especially from smaller villages, center around the theory that the Greensprig Wanderers are halfbreeds; the product of unions between people and spirits. Because of this, they walk the woods to avoid those who would seek their power as bridges between this world and the spirit realm.
On occasion, scholars have highered trackers in an attempt to follow wanders. Most often these attempts end in the death of the trackers, and occasionally their proprietors as well. Since then, the wanderers have been, for the most part, left to their own devices. From previous attempts to learn about this group, however, it has been learned that the Greensprig Wanderers do follow a rough pattern of travel through the woods, dependent highly on the changing of the seasons.
