Fanghîn's Cave was a small cave in the mountains of Tolfalas, not far from Imrazôr's Hallow. It had once (ca. T.A. 1448-1450) been the home of Fanghîn, the last surviving Drúadan of the island.

Although a natural cave formation cut into the stone, Fanghîn's home was comfortably warm, and smelled of scattered mint leaves. It was also well-lit by candles, which illuminated miniature watch-stones (between one and two feet tall) lining the cave-wall (the candles were, however, of little use to Fanghîn himself, since as long as he remained in the cave, he would be able to see by means of the stones that lined the walls). At the rear of the cave were a stone-lined hearth, a few pots, and several exotic vines and roots, strung nearby for food. Bags of mint leaves, berries, and nuts were also stocked near the hearth. The cave was simply furnished, with a single bed of clean, dry straw, and fur pelts that covered a section of the stone floor at the rear of the cave; but there were neither chairs nor a table.
