The children again warred with humans when the [[Andals]] began migrating from [[Andalos]] across the [[narrow sea]] to Westeros. Zealous in the [[Faith of the Seven]] and armed with steel, having learned of ironworking from the [[Rhoynar]],{{Ref|ADWD|5}} the Andals resumed the cutting down and burning of [[weirwood]]s.{{Ref|TWOIAF|The Riverlands}}

Children are said to have sent wolves against Andals at the [[White Wood]].{{Ref|TWOIAF|The Riverlands}} The [[Storm King]] [[Durran XXI Durrandon]] formed the [[Weirwood Alliance]] with the remaining children in the [[stormlands]] against the new invaders.{{Ref|TWOIAF|The Stormlands: Andals in the Stormlands}} Having seen the Andals overwhelm other kingdoms, [[Gwayne IV Gardener]], [[King of the Reach]], sent men to seek aid from the children, although it is unknown if any were found.{{Ref|TWOIAF|The Reach: Andals in the Reach}}

A hill, now known to the Westerosi as [[High Heart]], was sacred to the children of the forest. There the Andal king [[Erreg the Kinslayer]] cut down the children's grove of thirty-one weirwoods. High Heart is said to be haunted by the [[ghosts]] of the children who died there, where the children's magic is said to still linger.{{Ref|ASOS|22}} ''[[True History]]'' states that the children had already abandoned the [[riverlands]] before the arrival of the Andals, however.{{Ref|TWOIAF|The Riverlands}}

Because of the [[Andal invasion|Andals' invasion]] and conquest of the First Men, the old gods were largely supplanted south of the [[Neck]] by the Faith of the Seven. [[Moat Cailin]] held back the Andals from the north,{{Ref|TWOIAF|Ancient History: The Arrival of the Andals}} however, so some children fled north.{{Ref|AGOT|66}} During the reign of [[Dorren Stark]], [[King in the North]], the ranger [[Redwyn]] traded with children during a journey to [[Lorn Point]] and the [[Frozen Shore]].{{Ref|ACOK|6}}

Relations between the children and humans grew distant over the years, until they ceased altogether. Maesters largely believe the children have been gone for hundreds{{Ref|TWOIAF|Ancient History: The Long Night}} or thousands{{Ref|AGOT|24}} of years, but the [[free folk]] believe they still live [[beyond the Wall]].{{Ref|AGOT|66}} Some scholars have suggested that children may have survived at the [[Isle of Faces]] or in the bogs of the Neck.{{Ref|TWOIAF|Ancient History: The Arrival of the Andals}} Some also theorize that the [[crannogmen]] of the Neck intermarried with the children.{{Ref|TWOIAF|The North: The Crannogmen of the Neck}}

[[Jenny of Oldstones]] always claimed that her [[ghost of High Heart|woods witch friend]] was one of the children.{{Ref|ADWD|23}} Lord [[Eddard Stark]] taught his offspring in their youth about the Age of Heroes and the children of the forest.{{Ref|AGOT|1}}
