Quote:
4: You reach a broken tree and it is sobbing. "I'm so very sad", says the broken tree. "So, so very sad indeed. I left my glasses around here and now I can't find them. Can you help me out?"

If you don't help it out it gives you nothing and continues to sob.

If you help it out, search around the tree for glasses! Roll 1d4. If you roll a 4 you succeed in finding its glasses. It is super excited as you hand it back. "Thank you, oh my goodness, thank you indeed. Here, have this." It gives you a fragment and insists on giving you a hug, but the hug is very prickly and not very nice at all. +1 Fragment.


Looking around the area, WhiteCat moved some bushes, finding nothing. As he thought about it, he contemplated just where a tree might lose its glasses TO... One of his sisters wore glasses... So there was a start... Where did she often lose hers? Being a tree, it didn't exactly GO far, so the missing spectacles couldn't be far away. He got down on his hands and knees, rooting around in the bushes directly around the base of the tree. Nothing...

A moment of clarity struck, and WhiteCat looked UP. There, in a branch, something glimmered. He crackled his fingers, before starting to climb. Like the striped tree, despite its sobbing, the broken tree laughed a bit. "Who knew... Trees are ticklish..." He reached up, grabbing the glasses before shimmying back down and holding them up. "Found 'em! They were on your he-- Er, on one of your branches!" He handed them back to the tree, who happily gave him a fragment. At least this one wasn't coughed out on his head... As he left, he offered the tree a wave... And then sighed as it promptly lost them again. Trees...

6: You reach a long, slender tree and it looks quite ordinary. "Hello," says the long slender tree. "I have a small question. I have two friends, Dilly, Milly, and Nilly. Nilly is taller than Dilly, but shorter than me. Dilly is shorter than Milly but taller than me. How tall am I?"

If you answer as truthfully as you can the tree says "No, why, I do not think that's the answer at all. You are very wrong."

If you tell them you do not know the tree gloats. "Why, I didn't think you would. It proves I am the better tree." But you are not a tree at all!


As he walked, WhiteCat suddenly found himself staring at.... A rather ordinary tree. Of course, of what he'd seen so far, what around here WAS ordinary? He stared at it, transfixed as it asked a riddle...

It had to be a riddle, didn't it? As he listened, his eyebrows went up. "That's like asking how a writing desk is like a raven... You asked me about TWO friends and named THREE. That begs the question of just how tall Dilly is... Of course, there's also the matter of PERSPECTIVE, which as you can see mine is not adequate compared to YOUR perspective. That said, I'm going to say you're all the exact same height, given that one is shorter than the other two but taller than you, who is between the other two in height, so none of you is shorter or taller than the other."

He waited for the tree to answer, only to get a raspberry. "No, why, I do not think that's the answer at all. You are very wrong."

WhiteCat glared at the tree, making a rude gesture before leaving. "Stupid tree..."

After catching his breath Matt looked at a few other trees, before finding a tree with stripes. He stared a few minutes at it before shaking his head slowly and turning away. Trees with stripes, it was almost like a bad art project for some elementary school play where the kids got to make their own sets. There was no doubt that he would much rather be anywhere else in this place than here with trees.

"Silly...."

"I beg your pardon," says the tree with stripes, "but I am not silly at all. In here everything is possible and anything is impossible and therefore a tree with stripes is completely within everything and anything." Its stripes change colours. "Now, give me a good, good shake. I want to get some more colour out. Shake me really well, if you do I'll reward you."

Matt peered at it and with a few cautious steps walked over and shook it and took his fragment and darted.

the next tree was a snooty one, almost as snooty as the talking smiles that flitted from side to side. HayMak3r was not amused as he stood there blankly and took in its riddle. "Barely as tall as I" he replied back, making his own joke.

Frankly he cared very little about the joke. he just wanted to speak to it and move on.

Since when could trees become assholes without an a**? It was better to walk away, and find more pleasant company in the forest.

[Entrance]

Dreams were very interesting for Ignatius. They usually came very suddenly, about as suddenly as sleep came for him when he finally got himself tired. There had not been a situation before, though, where he was told to drink a bottle and go through some kind of strange selection process.

He needed a new name? But he liked his own!

The temptation to pick his own name was strong when presented with the choice, but he pondered on it a bit more. If this was a username, perhaps he could pick something that might be more amusing. Ignatius wasn't terribly amusing, as much as he liked it, and Yildirim was just a mouthful. He needed something better than that. Maybe he could pick some kind of play on lightning... Or maybe he could pick a play on ghosts being such a terror to humanity...

Aha.

"RoyalBlightning, that'll be my name." Royal was a harken back to his own name, and Blightning... well, it worked well. A combination of being a Blight and being Lightning.

He thought it was clever.

Mad Hatter was selected as his class without a second thought, perhaps fitting for someone who was indeed a little spontaneous, and he stepped into the strange world...

He was going to guess he needed to talk to the person with the exclamation point over their head.

Just an inkling.

[Tree #1]

Blightning had to talk to five different trees? It was a bit strange, but no different than other dream oddities he had dealt with before. This reminded him of the dream where he needed to talk to dressers for no explicable reason... It was about the same line.

He tapped his tongue against his teeth, before walking off to the first tree he spotted.

A tree with stripes? That was, "That's definitely a bit silly, even for my dreams."

"I beg your pardon," says the tree with stripes, "but I am not silly at all. In here everything is possible and anything is impossible and therefore a tree with stripes is completely within everything and anything." Its stripes change colours. "Now, give me a good, good shake. I want to get some more colour out. Shake me really well, if you do I'll reward you."

Blightning shrugged. "Alright." Not questioning it any further, Blightning grabbed the tree with both hands and started to shake it,. He had some upper body strength that helped him with the task, but it was definitely a little harder to shake a tree than it may have seemed at first glance ... Okay, maybe it was easier than it seemed at first glance--

The tree giggled as their stripes changed colors, before dropping a strange piece of something onto him.

Ah! A fragment!

That went into his pocket as he moved onto the next tree.

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.

The next tree that Kludge approached was tiny, and it looked up at him with a row of smiling teeth. That was... kind of creepy really, but he was willing to play along.

"Hmmm.." he said, pondering what he should guess, What did a tree hide? Bark? Leaves? Maybe he didn't have to know the right answer, maybe he just needed an answer. "Are you hiding an animal?"

"Nope! I'm hiding something in my mouth!" It proceeded to stick out it's mouth, revealing a fragment. Kludge reached out, and was able to take it. Sweet.

There were a few more trees, some with large things hanging like nuts (but somehow he doubt that whatever was in the shell was actually a nut). Some looked like palm trees that in the middle of the forest looked rather strange without sand and some pretty blue sea behind it. Why couldn’t it be a beach anyways he thought as he stopped in front of another tree.
More stripes.

More effing stripes.

This time they were vertical versus horizontal.

“NNGHHH stupid trees,” Matt muttered as he started to walk towards it. The tree replied the same way and without hesitation this time he shook it and left.

[Tree #2]

The second tree he approached had some useful signs! What did they say?

This.

Uh...huh

Way

To

Nowhere

Okay, that was really helpful...

And

There were more signs. Why was And it's own sign?

Everywhere

Blightning snorted and moved on to the next tree.

[Tree #3]

Ah, a tree!

A very small tree!

A ... tree stump!

This wasn't very useful for talking to since it seemed that the tree had already been knocked down. Blightning would have been more disappointed if he did not see the tree as being useful for sitting on. Sitting down, the Mad Hatter took a few moments to reflect before bounding off to the next tree.

Or not.

Blightning decided that he wanted to sit down a bit longer, actually. His legs were getting so tired.

In contrast, the next tree was incredibly long, bending down to look at him with sleepy eyes. When he reached over, the tree spoke, asking him to come back later once he was clean.

How dirty could a tree get?

However, these were talking trees, and it was better to do as he asked. "Alright, I'll be back later."

He left, and wandered around for a bit, but when he returned, the tree was good. "Curious." Where in the world did it go?

[Tree #5]

These Tulgey Woods were quite the maze, it seemed, because Blightning finally managed to get himself up... but to the confusing tree with unhelpful instructions again.

Blightning groaned.

"Yes, this is the way to nowhere and everywhere. I get it." This was, indeed, nowhere. He could see it. Blightning decided to go everywhere by leaving the quest.

His next tree pick was a wide tree, and, if the Cheshire Cat wasn't imagining things, seemed to be unhappy to see him. It was. Apparently somebody around here was mean to it, and the tree was fed up with people.

It even threatened to hit him.

Well, he could see that he wasn't wanted, and he moved away from that particular tree.

It was another long tree, another tree that didn't want to be touched until it was clean? That seemed awfully suspicious to Kludge, and he stared at the tree for a moment. It was the same tree from earlier, though he was a bit unsure of how it was moving.

Magic likely.

Still, he did as the tree said, leaving him alone, and once more it had vanished. This time, it wasn't really a surprise.
