The Seed of Rot
It's up to you to protect the Old Forest, lest it become overrun with wood-trolls and fell spirits.
'Seek you to break the sword? Old Tom won't stop you. But don't you go alone with that old Willow-man still a-singing. His song today is darker now than once it was, dangerous, and mean.
'Hop along, my little friends, let our hobbit show the way. And steer you clear of dangers fell, but if you can't: stay strong, stay safe!'
Tom has told you that the sword can be found near Old Man Willow.
You should work together with Marigold to find the sword and destroy it.
