Ce qui leur arrive dans les livres

Le Lion, la Sorcière blanche et l'Armoire magique, Le Prince Caspian, La Dernière Bataille

The dryads and hamadryads are the spirits of the trees. They resemble women, but their hair resembles foliage, and their bodies are the color of bark. Their life is linked to that of their tree : cutting down the tree means killing them. Under the Telmarines, the trees fall asleep. In Prince Caspian, Lucy senses they are close to waking, and Aslan awakens them for the Battle of Aslan’s How. In The Last Battle, a dryad dies before Tirian, denouncing the felling of the Lamp-post Lane. Lewis borrowed these nymphs from Greek mythology. The original site also listed the "tree spirits".

When the tree dies, the dryad dies with it. They dance, sing, and freeze when Narnia is oppressed.

Living soul of the Narnian forests.

Dryads

Dryads — They are three nymphs. They are bound to a tree, and when the tree dies, they die too. They can move freely outside of their tree. In ancient myths, they are depicted as shy beings who flee at the sight of others. In Narnia, they are more mysterious than shy and are faithful to Aslan and Narnia.
