Wood Gods were first seen in the coronation where King Frank I and Queen Helen became the First King and Queen of Narnia. They were also mentioned in Prince Caspian, where they aided the Old Narnians against the Telmarine army. The Wood Gods of the trees in Lantern Waste were slaughtered a long with their Wood Nymph sisters when the Calormenes chopped down their trees during the Calormene Conquest.
