What Happens in the Forest, Stays in the Forest

Illustration for a D&D campaign.
The locals of the human township Bluebell worship forest spirits that protect their crops and livestock. When the monster heroes visit the town, disguised as humans, they meet one such fox spirit whom they befriend with copious amounts of jerky. When they foil an ambush set by a holy crusader, the disguised monster heroes are left with several dead humans. They realise the fox spirits offer another useful service, when the bodies are pulled beneath the ground by grasping vines causing the foliage nearby to visibly grow.
