The Giantman Village is a small village that migrates around Elanthia, never staying in the same place for long. There are several places where it can be found between Icemule Trace and Solhaven. To find the village, look for a newly-cut path.

Locations

[Icemule Trail, Snowy Forest] RNUM: 2501
A drooping pine tree stands to one side of the trail, its long branches sweeping downward to brush against the ice-crusted ground. High overhead, the snow-tipped spires of the towering trees dance in the wind.
