Ghân-buri-Ghân by Brothers Hildebrandt
Ghân-buri-Ghân (late Third Age) was the chief of the Drúedain who inhabited Drúadan Forest at the time of the War of the Ring.
Before the Battle of Pelennor Fields, he helps King Théoden and the Rohirrim to avoid an army of Orcs by taking them through the secret pass of Stonewain Valley. This allows the Rohirrim to arrive in time to fight the battle. In return, Théoden promised that the people of Rohan will no longer trouble the Drúedain and would drive away the Gorgûn (Orcs), that hunted them.
Following the War of the Ring, Aragorn, as High King of the Reunited Kingdom, decreed that Drúadan Forest belonged to only Ghân and his people, and that no one else may enter the forest without their permission.
