This is where you come get the Golden Goblet of Life from the black dragon Nizidramanii'yt. You need the Goblet to summon the Avatar of Rillifane.
Here is where you enter the grove. Before advancing, it is recommended that you prepare yourself for a dragon battle.
Here you will find Nizidramanii'yt. He has the Golden Goblet that you need. You can get it from him in two ways. One is to talk him into letting you have the Goblet in return for all the party's gold and items. Of course that is not worth considering.
This leaves the other way, which is to kill Nizidramanii'yt and loot the Goblet from his corpse.
Nizidramanii'yt is worth 52,000 XP but you will have to work for it! He puts up quite a fight and uses such dirty tricks as Wing Buffet, Entangle, and Creeping Doom. He drops the Golden Goblet of Life, a Star Sapphire, a Diamond, 345 GP, the Bladesinger Chain +4, and a few minor items. The Bladesinger Chain can be worn by an arcane spellcaster (though not a single-class Mage) without preventing them from casting spells; very useful for Haer'Dalis or Nalia, less useful for Imoen due to her low Strength stat.
