Tree beard {Tolkien}

Treebeard or as known as Fangorn in Sindarin, is a tree-giant character in Tolkien’s legendarium. He is an Ent, and Gandalf claims that he is the oldest creature still alive on Middle-earth that walks beneath the sun. He has given his name to the old Forest of Fangorn, where he resides. It is located near the Misty Mountains’ southernmost point near the Gap of Rohan. The mountains constituted Fangorn’s western boundary. Near the southwest corner of the woodland was Saruman’s stronghold, Isengard, at the foot of the mountain range. He is said to be roughly fourteen feet tall and have an oak or beech-like appearance. Treebeard encounters two Hobbits from the Shire, Merry Brandybuck and Pippin Took, in The Two Towers. This encounter turns out to have ramifications that greatly advance the plot and make possible the events of The Return of the King.
