The first tree Mercurial approached had apparently taken the talking signpost's class in confusing conversation. The Hatter girl frowned as she listened to the riddle. "Look, you said two friends and named three," she began. It felt so pedantic that she decided against picking apart the rest of the puzzle. The tree wanted an answer? She'd give it an answer, paraphrased from its own inconsistent words. "Taller than Nilly and shorter than Dilly."
Paraphrase or not, her answer did not please the tree. "No, why, I do not think that's the answer at all. You are very wrong," it declared, to a roll of her silver eyes.
"Think it over. Doesn't my answer sound familiar at all?" she suggested over a shoulder as she moved toward the tree next to it. Here's to hoping the next tree would talk a little more clearly.

Bronze tripped over a root and sprawled into the sharp barked tree he'd spoke to previous to the small tree. "Oh!" he swore in a foreign tongue, rubbing his knee and cradling his face. "I'm still looking, let me just, move this stuff here..."

(still 4/5)
"OH, look!" he lifted a pair of very oddly shaped glasses out of the leafy debris, "Are these ones-HRKK!" His tail puffed up three times its usual size as the uncomfortably prickly branches grabbed him up. Bronze struggled in a panic until he realized it wasn't trying to eat him. "Erk- welcome!" he squeaked, going limp. It seemed the best way to get free as the tree celebrated the return of the precious item. "You simply MUST accept my gratitude, darling!" the tree cooed, opening his hands and depositing another shard piece. "Are you sure? I don't mind helping," Bronze wheezed, holding back a cough for fear of looking ungrateful. He let the tree fuss over him a moment before backing away, "Ah, just be careful, they're always so easy to lose, you know," he escaped from the thorny grasp with a friendly wave and sidled away to recover, leaning against a very still tree to hack a little.

iPink wasn't surprised at the sudden change in her surrounds. Not really. Stranger things had happened to her before. What she could not figure out, however, was what she was doing before she fell asleep, or when she fell asleep for that matter... It was all one big mystery, but she took solace in the fact that everyone else was probably as confused and lost as she was.
And this place was definitely not helping, with its colorful trees, mishmash of noises, and occasional shifting ground. It was actually pretty disorientating.

[ tree 2/5 ]
The next tree said nothing at all to Mercurial, as it was a tree stump. Welcoming the respite from confusing little speeches, she sat down beside the stump, her back resting against it. Then it was time to get back on her feet for more tree-examining.

[Tree 3/5]
5: You reach a willow tree and you can barely see its eyes through the giant slew of willows. It shakes its head furiously, leaves rain down, and refuses you let you go any closer, batting you with its leaves. Ow!
Surely there might be something interesting in all of the willow's branches... Or so the tabby thought until he got close enough to make the crazy thing stir.
He shielded his face from the leafy rain, and leaped back when the tree seemed keen to use its branches like a damned whip.
"Okay! OKAY! I'M GOING!" He bellowed, running out of reach.
KittenMittens never did like trees all that much.

Adventuremaster heard a snicker, and his singular eye traveled to its source, noticing a woman on the other side of the tree he was standing in front of, though she was hardly out of sight. Glancing up, he read her name, and eyebrows lifted.
"Sunshine_minx?" He questioned, not bothering with any pleasentries at all. "You think of that kind of name all by yourself, darling? What are you, 12?" He, of course, had no idea who he was talking to.

When he recovered, Bronze jumped in surprise as the tree spoke. "Sorry! I- wait..." He frowned, about to explain to the tree that it was logically impossible for it to be both shorter and taller than Dilly, but decided it wasn't worth offending it, especially considering that if the ground moved and trees talked, why would anyone's height be a stable, set quantity? "Ah, well, at the moment, you look about 8 or 9 feet tall..."
There was a brief pause. "No, why, I do not think that's the answer at all. You are very wrong."
"I have been know to be that!" He chirped, not at all worried about it. This was a dream after all, and it was pretty fun overall. If the tree knew something he didn't, it was a strong possibility that he was indeed wrong. A strange tugging made him turn away, it was time to go, but he waved to the tree before he was out of sight, "Goodbye, if I come back, perhaps i will see all four of you to compare!" he hopped off, amused.

Whoo, a stump. Well obviously there wasn't a tree there to talk to, but she did take this chance to sit down for a little bit and rest her legs. That in its self was odd enough as it was, plus the lack of wings, but be it a dream or game she wasn't going to complain about being whole again for a little while.

Coming up to the third tree, Mercurial promptly decided that listening to words that made no sense at all was still preferable to being batted at by willow leaves. If the tree wanted its space, she was happy to oblige. She beat a hasty retreat, hands busy brushing off fallen willow leaves from her outfit as she went.

She had made plenty of regrettable decisions in the past, although she wouldn't say that she had led a regrettable life... But she most certainly would have regretted not picking a name like Hentai.Kitten. To make it even better, her name was displayed for all to see, floating above her. There would be no need for boring, pointless introductions.
She started to explore the place, all the while wearing a huge - pun intended - Cheshire grin on her face.

As if things hadn't been odd enough, now there were toothy grins just floating up in the trees. That wasn't disturbing at all, nope.
"You seem a little lost", says the smiling set of teeth, "but not to worry. Everyone's quite lost here. I hope you find your way, there's so much more for you to get lost in."
Well no kidding she seemed lost. Getting plopped in a new world and ending up talking to trees tended to do that to a person. She didn't bother wasting her breath retorting to the creature though as it disappeared as soon as it finished speaking.
A small ding seemed to indicate that she'd finished with the quest and had gained a few rewards. This time it was an extra level and a card. Hmm, maybe talking to trees wouldn't be such a bad thing if it kept giving her stuff.

3: You reach a tiny tree and it looks up at you and only has a row of smiling teeth. "Guess what I'm hiding!"
If you cater to it then it tells you "I'm hiding something in my mouth!" It sticks out its mouth and lo and behind it is a fragment! +1 Fragment.
If you don't guess the tree looks disappointed. "Oh, okay..." It does not give you a fragment.
The next tree noticed him before he noticed it.
Teeth on trees were a bit creepy, he noted, as he peered down at the pitiful thing.
Fortunately, he decided to humor it. "I dunno... Sap?"
He was surprised to see that there was actually something useful in the sapling's mouth. "Oh! Well, that's certainly nicer than some sticky sap." He said, trying to show the enthusiasm he expected any sort of youngster to appreciate.
