Do you guys have any suggestions on how a Druid could research spells in a more 'druidic' way?

Or they could research through their gatherings, or calling on animals to bring them knowledge.

I wouldn't put the collection of Druid lore in a big city library myself. Maybe more like a hidden grove deep in a forest, under a waterfall or on a mountain. Maybe there are no books, per say..but say lots of iron druid rune sticks, or standing stones or crystal shapes.

Then too is the 'consulting'. Druids talk to say....old treants, fey and such...and outsiders in service of their deity(or just nature-type outsiders).

Even if you don't go so exotic, there should still be 'natural' cities in the game world that are druid freindly. Or they could be located by a city....just not in it

The cost is miscellaneous, after all.
