Gatekeepers are tree-like figures referred to as mindslayers who guard the gate to the Zanaris market. They will only let players pass if they pay a tax of one cut diamond. When asked why they need a diamond, they say it's used to make fairy lights.
Another gatekeeper guards the shady grove that is filled with baby tanglefootii.[1]
Per their dialogue, the gatekeepers are all brothers.
