Back at the [[castle]], the [[Earl]] [[Godfrey (The Green Man)|Godfrey]] goes to meet a new arrival, wondering if it is Osbert and Alfred returned at last from their expedition into the forest, but it is instead his old friend, the Frenchman [[Henri d'Arrée|D'Arrée]]. D'Arrée explains that he has come from the hospice because he heard about Lady Maud's illness, and has brought with him [[Moses of Tyre]], a [[scholar]] of the [[Knights Templar]]. Although he does have the servant-girl [[Rose (The Green Man)|Rose]] escort Moses to his wife's chambers, he is openly suspicious of the newcomer due to him being a [[Judaism|Jew]], albeit a Christian convert. D'Arrée tries to talk him out of his prejudices. Their conversation is interrupted by the return of a harried Sergeant Alfred, who tells the two noblemen about the mysterious attack and Osbert's disappearance. The Earl orders Alfred to go back into the forest with backup and find Osbert again. D'Arrée joins the expedition. | Back at the [[castle]], the [[Earl]] [[Godfrey (The Green Man)|Godfrey]] goes to meet a new arrival, wondering if it is Osbert and Alfred returned at last from their expedition into the forest, but it is instead his old friend, the Frenchman [[Henri d'Arrée|D'Arrée]].

To the armed men's terror, the creature seems undeterred even after they manage to "wound" it, and they spot Osbert's satchel on its shoulder, revealing that it is Osbert himself, corrupted. D'Arrée orders the other men to fall back, and they make their way back to the castle, empty-handed and chased at a distance by the "forest demon". Moses worriedly explains that he can do nothing for Lady Maud without the herbs to prepare a potion, and decides to ride back to the Temple Hospice to bring back some of the herbs kept in storage there, and also more Knights Templar, armed for battle. | ||
Soon, the "forest demons" attack the [[village]] near the castle. Unable to wait for Moses's reinforcement, Alfred's men-at-arms regroup to fight back against the monsters, with D'Arrée mounting his [[war]]-[[horse]], [[Léontif]].

Though Moses' horse bolts in fear after throwing him, taking the previous herbs with it, the scholar is able to advise Alfred and the Earl on how to defeat the monster: observing that it is plant-like, he suggests that they should use [[axe]]s to try and chop it apart, instead of stabbing it with swords and lances. | Soon, the "forest demons" attack the [[village]] near the castle.
