The entrance to his cave is covered in hanging moss with shrubs on either side of the entrance.  The path to this cave is a small dirt one with low grass on the floor.

I am the wizard whose spells and enchantments keep this kingdom from tottering and falling off a cliff. Every day I must use my powers over the forces of evil to keep them from wreaking havoc. I am also head of the college of wizards, so, as you might imagine, I have very little free time to pursue my hobby of embroidery.
What brings you here, foul creature? I am the guardian of the forest. Kept here by a spell cast by the high priestess. I see you enjoy abusing my shrubbery? I would call it far from abuse. I am gathering resources for my students at the college of wizardry. It will be put to great use. This shrub was given to me by a knight named Arthur. It was brought to me, after giving Arthur exact specifications on what kind of shrub i wanted. Very will. I will find others to use then, if it is of such importance to you. Wizard. What have you brought me. How do I know your kind wont return and level my forest, just for its moss? I am the head wizard. I would never wish for such chaos and destruction. Your forest is of equal importance to me. Your words are nice, but without an offering, I'm afraid I can't let you take the moss. It is nothing but moss. I am taking nothing you will miss. Do you request the same of everyone who traverses through? Yes! If you want to pass safely I need an offering of peace. Otherwise, you may never leave here. Bring me.... a shrubbery. Would this one work for you? NO! A new shrubbery! A nice one!, but not too nice, I don't want my forest looking too uppity.
