Editing Treants (section)

==History==
Long ago, Treants were a, if not common, then still well-known race, living in the Great Forests which each continent was home to. Alongside other spirits of nature, they ruled much of the wilderness, and would wreak devastation on the villages in their domain, even fighting the [Druids] that protected these pockets of civilisation. As villages became cities, the [Druids] turned to helping the Treants,<ref name=":4">[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/07/01/interlude-a-meeting-of-druids/ Interlude – A Meeting of Druids]</ref> as people started cutting them down. At one point, the Treants fought against the Dragonlords, joined by the Drowned Folk in battle.<ref>{{VERef|Paradigm Shift (Pt. 1) – Interlude}}</ref> But over time, each Great Forest fell,<ref name=":3" /> and the Treants dwindled alongside them. By the time of the Creler Wars, only the last of the species remained, yet they still joined the fight against Rhir after the Crelers breached Ettertree Grove.<ref>{{VERef|Another Time – Interlude}}</ref>

The final Treants of all the lands remained on Izril in the Vale Forest, until House Veltras cut down the Great Forest and drove the Treants to walk into the sea.<ref name=":1" /><ref name=":2" /> This event, referred to as the Treant Wars, also led the [Druids] to leave Vale Forest.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2021/05/04/8-21-l/ Chapter 8.21 L]</ref>

In the modern age, a small number of Treants still wander the ocean floor, slowly dying,<ref>{{VERef|Goblin Days (Pt. 7) – No Answers and Answers}}</ref> rarely seen by passing [Sailors].<ref name=":0" /> Recently though, they have started to gather around Baleros, drawn by the new Great Forest that has sprouted in the Dyed Lands.<ref name=":3" />
