Dryads

Description

I really didn’t expect this - vegetal enemies! The legendary Dryads are out to destroy us. They seem unaware of who they’re up against. Here are my notes:

Firstly, the sap flowing through their branches dulls steel weapons.

To be effective, focus on attacking the open flowers and avoid hitting the branches.

The Abbot always told me, “Eat your vegetables!” Now I’m telling you, “Kill those vegetables!” Funny how that works, huh? Here are some more notes:

Building on my previous point, if you want to avoid dealing with the corrosive sap, use a blunt weapon. Without a blade, there’s no edge to dull. This way, you can strike the Dryad anywhere on her body.

This is the final note on the Dryads:

Occasionally, a Dryad uses a seed to produce a daughter, who resembles her but is less dangerous. You can identify these daughters by their greenish hue and the absence of flowers on their bodies. It’s wise to deal with them first, as they can be dispatched with a single blow from the right weapon.
