Under surprising new leadership, the Wildwood Lodge begins a campaign of violence. Shocked, the PCs and their allies form a new lodge in exile to oppose this new regime. As they recruit new friends to their cause, the PCs must deny the Wildwood Lodge a powerful relic created by the renegade druid Ghorus, all while investigating the strange, primal magic the Wildwood Lodge has uncovered. If the PCs are to prevail, they will need to track down one of the Verduran Forest's most dangerous inhabitants and convince her to aid their cause—or ensure she cannot aid their enemy.Severed at the Root is a wilderness-themed Pathfinder Second Editiion adventure for four 8th-level characters.
