Return to Oldwood is the first interlude in The Rise of Wesnoth campaign.
Background
While fleeing from an orcish invasion, Stormvale's refugees had journeyed into the Oldwood Forest, home of a number of woses, led by Elilmaldur-Rithrandil, under attack from the orcs. The refugees' leader, Prince Haldric, helped to drive out the orcs. Elilmaldur-Rithrandil offered to open the catacombs below a temple nearby,[1] wherein Haldric defeated the Lich-Lord Lenvan and stole the Ruby of Fire.[2]
While Haldric had been in the catacombs, the leader of the Wesfolk, Lady Jessene, had scouted the path ahead. She had discovered that the orcs blocked the route south to Southbay, but the Swamp of Esten had prevented them from blocking the path east to Clearwater Port. She then traveled to the Oldwood Forest to impart this information.[3]
Interlude
Upon emerging from the temple catacombs in the late fall, Haldric returned to his former base of operations in the Oldwood Forest and was met by Elilmaldur-Rithrandil.[3]
