Greenpath

Verdant depths guarded by a species of leafy bugs. Pools of burning acid and thick overgrowth make navigation difficult.

Description

Greenpath is an exuberant green cavern, composed of a diverse vegetation, mossy valleys, and broad lakes of acid. These features have deeply reflected in its inhabitants, who developed a natural mossy camouflage, allowing them to perfectly blend with their surroundings. Throughout all of Greenpath, pillars and egg-shaped stones with swirl carvings, sometimes reaching enormous sizes, can be spotted very frequently.

Zote the Mighty can be found in the north part of the area being attacked by a Vengefly King. The Knight will have the choice to either save him or leave him.

In the northwest part of Greenpath, to the left of the arena where Hornet is fought, the Lake of Unn can be found with a lone Moss Knight standing on the edge of the pier next to the shrine. Further left, on the other side of the lake, Unn can be encountered at the bottom of the lake.

At the end of a challenging path full of thorns and Durandas in the southwest sector of the area is Sheo's Hut, where the Knight can learn the Great Slash nail art.

In the very southeastern portion of the area, near the connection to Fog Canyon, the Stone Sanctuary can be found at the end of a dark passage below the bench room. In the section above, lies the Hunter in his lair set up in a small cave.

Lore

Greenpath is inhabited by the Moss Tribe, a group of bugs covered in moss and leaves. They had a shared relationship with Hallownest, allowing the Pale King to build roads throughout their lush caves with the condition that anything straying from the paths would be subordinated to their laws.

The most glaring displays of their skills of carving and construction are the lore tablets scattered across Greenpath and the temple built to worship their god, Unn, on the shores of the Lake of Unn, where the Higher Being was said to appear.

The region now known as Greenpath used to be much more extensive, stretching to Queen's Gardens and possibly Fog Canyon.

How to access

In order to enter Greenpath, an Elder Baldur must be defeated. This requires the Vengeful Spirit to be acquired from the Snail Shaman in the Ancestral Mound.
