"In mythos and literature, the dryad has been romanticized as a symbol of nature or a gentle & womanly creature. Keat's Ode to a Nightingale addresses them at "light-winged Dryad of the trees". The Dyrads fight on the side of light in The Chronicles of Narnia," spoke Professor Terminis as he walked to the front of his desk, turned and with a press of the button, turned on the overhead projector.
"This class," he turned back to the small handful of new hunters, "is a pretty lie. They are creatures of instinct. They will viciously attack any who come to close to their home trees. If several live in a closed circle, they attack like killer bees. They do send warning signals but most people don't know or understand what they are hearing. The best time to get rid of any infestation is at night...when the separate from their arboreal shelter and go out to gather nutrients."
