He will attack the Warden however when annoyed and he is capable of some powerful magic, being a renegade Blood Mage. He will summon some Greater Rage Demons to help him. Note: If you search the tree stump to recover the acorn before speaking with him and ignore him telling you it's his house, he will attack you without any further conversation.
Swiftrunner - unavoidable fight past the Magical Barrier
Witherfang - brief appearance to end the fight with Swiftrunner
Gatekeeper - retreats into the ruins before the Warden can engage
