A few hours later the old woman come back to me this time careening the dead body of a 12-meter-long snake.

She was injuries and was visibly tired and well as having green vine all over her body, she dope the snake and come to the bear finding him dead form blood loss and poison.

She walk over to me with her back to my trunk, I grow a fruit that fails right in her lap she take it a eat it thinking me for the fruit.

 

Then she start to tell me what happen with her finding the bear, her fight with the snake and how she does not have long to live.

It was then she said that she does not have long to live that I got an idea and so I made a root grow form inform of her in the form of a bored then by growing parts in the shape of words and letters I can talk to people.

I witter (what is your name so that I mean remember you, and what am I.)

She choke on the fruit I worry that she mean died there and then but after a moment she get it together and after thinking for a minute she said to speak.

My name is (old woman) and you are a tree but not just any tree, no you are a spirit tree.

After the birth of the heavens, the earth, and the heavens will, come the birth of Yggdrasill the first birth, the heaven tree, and the daughter of the heavens.

Unlike the heavens Yggdrasill could only make children like you but could not create live like the heavens and her children were week fragile and did not have a mind of their only until there are muse older, so Yggdrasill ask the heavens for help and she and her children’s received a blessing to your race.

 

You see ever if the heavens wanted to there cannot simply give any one race to must power as that would go against their fairs, which could then do more harm than good.

So there give you guys a blessing that, 1 you will naturally form an environment suitable for any plant live that you wise to let live here, 2 any beast that make their home near you and protect you will have their descendants bloodline improve over each generation, I known for a fact there are some limitations or restrictions but what there are I do not known only that there exist, 3 that your kin will be given longer lifespans then other but at the same time without her mind it would not mean mast.

There used to be other like you here in this world but an incredibly long-time age we kill than all but one and we then make wall to keep other form him, when I first sew you and make sure you were a spirt tree, I had the thought to leave you and never come back, or you talk people or to keep you all to my saft.

 

In the end I made a sect and made people think that the land was special not the live in it to give you time to grow and develop and I hope that you will not kill all of hues as hypocritical as that mean sound, and do not worry the only ones that ever known what a spirt tree is are Herbology as there see your kin as an almost god like being there are ever story of the first Herbology being taught how to care for plant by her kin.

 

Alchemists see not you but where you reside as a kind of holy land as any herb will grow there, then there are the historians of the oldest of sect, and of all these people only the really old and powerful would have any idea of what you mean be.

So, I don’t think you have to worry about being known at least for a long time.

 

I don’t think I can least must more but before I go let’s get rid of that bored.

After saying that she destroys my root and the bored until there is nothing left, when she is done, I make a small pendant in the shape of a tree with the roots and branches acting as the outline with her name on the back of it then dope it in her lap.

 

She says think you and then closes her eye and after a few more minutes she passes with her back to me and in her hand my pendant.

It was not until the start of the next day that a group 5 come to me and found the snake, bear, and (old woman name), there were both the disciple and her daughter as well as the two old man and woman and finally there was a random elder form the sect.

 

After founding this seen there all had sad expressions and after ten minters of griffin there take the three dead bodies and made their way back to the sect.

 

For the next week I thought about everything that I know that I have found out and I come to a realisation at how fragile life is and how one small thing could change the outcome of everything.

Like how if the snake had not been so old or hungry, it could still be living now and killing everyone with hit and run tactics, or if instead of a snake it was a tiger or wolf something that did not have poison it would have been a uphill battle, but it is possible for both the bear and (old woman name) to be alive.

 

At that moment I feel something but in the next I loss it.
