Glimwillow Woods are a forest in Ninjago. The Woods are home to the Glimwillow Lilly, whose blossoms are gathered by the residents of the nearby Two Moon Village to produce their namesake Two Moon Tea. The Woods are also home to a group of bears protected by Kuma, the Guardian of Glimwillow Woods. These bears feed on the lillies, resulting in tense relationships between them and the Two Moon villagers in the past until the Liberation of Two Moon Village.

For this quest, the former dark lord was accompanied by the Two Moon Village Commandos and Min, the latter insisting she come along because no one knew the Glimwillow Woods better than she did. Eventually, the group arrived at Kuma's lair, where Garmadon defeated the Guardian of Glimwillow Woods and buried her within her own lair.

The Red Crows initiated their plans of conquering Ninjago by starting with the Glimwillow Woods, successfully driving out the native bears. Later, an alliance consisting of Garmadon, Min, Saeko, Renzo, Kenzo, the Two Moon Village Commandos, and the Bears of Glimwillow Woods, returned to Kuma's lair and released her from the rubble that Garmadon had previously buried her in, seeking her help in defeating the Red Crows. Following the Liberation of Two Moon Village, and the defeat of the Red Crows, the bears returned to the Glimwillow Woods.
