The Spider-Maw Grove is a beast-grove near Molgarak, where goblin riders are bonded to giant wolf spiders, blade-legged cave spiders, venom spitters, and web-haulers bred for war. It is a crawling place of silk, bone, venom, and ritual feeding, where young goblins learn that a mount is not a tool — it is a hunting partner that may eat the unworthy.
The grove’s druids train war spiders for ambush, cliff movement, tunnel fighting, night raids, and battlefield terror.
Webmother: Webmother Zhikra Many-Eyes
An ancient goblin druid with bead-black eyes, spider-silk robes, and long fingers stained with venom. Her favorite spider, Old Hunger, is larger than a wagon and smarter than some chiefs.
