Aelgus

Aelgus is a small, green, leafy fern that grows in thick patches. It is a common herb, and like athelas was originally grown and used by the Númenoreans. Shepherds and farmers consider it a nuisance and work to uproot and burn it. The knowledge of its use has been lost in the mists of time to all but the wisest herbalists; only those with Lore/Wilderness: Herbalism 8+ know of its beneficial effects. Location: Throughout Arnor.
