Are the assassin Vines outside Krandor really necessary? It seems to me that they are just an obstruction to travel ... which is odd to see when most people want to see people OUT of the starting town.
Is there some reason they are there? Are they balancing something that I don't realize? Is there some quest that I missed that put them there?
More importantly, WHY can they move? Especailly the hanging ones, which can chase people to Fort Llast where there is nothing for them to hang from ...
