The rite is being performed in the [[Sacred Pool]] of the [[Emerald Grove]]. The druids {{CharLink|Elwyn}}, {{CharLink|Karrik}}, {{CharLink|Aelar}}, {{CharLink|Inwe}}, and {{CharLink|Tahan}} can be found chanting around the [[Idol of Silvanus]]. The chant has six lines, with each new line spoken by the next chanter. Since there are only five chanters, they will all eventually chant all six lines.

The party can learn more about the Rite during the Quest {{Quest|Investigate Kagha}}, which can start when reading the scroll {{SmRarityItem|The Rite of Thorns|Rite of Thorns}} in the [[Servants' Quarters]]. After speaking to {{CharLink|Kagha}}, a [[Druid]] player character may note that the Rite of Thorns is a rare practice, outlawed in most circles for causing more harm than it eases.
