Nahm's Forest, a large forest of intest trees and vines that make it difficult to navigate on your own unless you know it well already. There are many small openings throughout the forest that make it poosible to set up a camp without burning the forest down.
A large tree resides in the center of the Forest known as Nahm's Tree. Most plantlife in the forest think of it as a god of sorts that protects the forest so it's kinda sacred and forbidened to almost anything but other plants. Offerings of fruit are often brought to it's trunk and mysteriously disappear. Some think it's just a troublesome monkey getting a free snack, good luck convincing the plants otherwise.
The only enemies to really worry about are large bugs called Mothrins that eat basically anything in their path, Venomous Snakes although they are easily frightened away by anything bigger than they are, and the ocassional overprotective Worship Vines found only around the base of Nahm's base so they aren't a real threat.

 Pummel Weed shuffled through the forest brush, knocking any vines from his way. "Hyahehe." he chuckled to himself as he made it to a small clearing with some flowers and a puddle of water. He curled his leaves with delight as he neared the water and clinched his jaws together.
The puddle was only a few inches deep but he only had to put his roots in it so it's size didn't matter. "Ahhh..." he sighed and looked around as he absorbed the amount of water he needed. He didn't need a lot but if there wasn't another source of water for a while he could be in big trouble.

 Dro stumbled through the woods. Well, limped was a more accurate description. His front right leg was curled up lightly, blood dripped from the claws that were shredded almost to the bone. He'd gotten into a fight with a MUCH larger Kimera and had been dragged across the ground. His wings were currently too weak and battered to fly and he was flat exhausted. His 'tail' was draped between his wings, the being unconscious. The only conscious mind on the body was the griffin head - the red eyes filled with hate and worry for it's fellow beings. One of their back legs gets hooked up in a tangled tree trunk and sprawls them across the forest floor, causing the griffin head to let out a strangled and pained squawk. If only the pain would go away. They'd been through so much already. If only their beloved hadn't died and they were left to fend for themselves in this unforgiving wilderness.

Pummel looked up, hearing the cry through the trees "Ehh?" he looked down, almost having drained the entire puddle to mud. He looked back where the cry came from and stepped out, bits of mud dripping from his roots.
He punched through vines and other things til he saw a strange looking thing laying on the ground a ways ahead. Lucky for him he also had the ability to see through the ground with his roots so even if trees were in the way he could see what was on the other side.
"Nrr?" he tilted his head and ran over to it's side, resisting the urge to poke him and see if he was still alive.

The griffin head was on the verge of fainting when a walking plant strolls up to them, making an odd sound as well. Dro could only manage a pathetic whimpering noise deep in the griffin throat. If the....thing....was there to eat him it better do it soon. He was thin enough so it wouldn't get much out of feeding off of them, but they wanted the mental pain to end as well as the physical pain.

He leaned back, the creature was so much bigger than him and it made noises too? He stretched his head around and looked it over "Rrrcha." he made a clicking noise before looking at the trunk that had this creature caught "Rrtan, nrrrach." he chattered to it and looked back to Dro. The tree made a loud creeking sound before it's root slowly moved, letting his foot go and digging back under ground.
Pummel moved back around to the heads and looked at the Griffin one "Rach, nrrr." he grunted and pointed toward the direction of the small area he had come from like he was asking if Dro would be able to make it.

The kimera was making noises again. Suddenly the pain around his back leg was gone and the creature was pointing off to something ahead. Dro struggled to stay partially conscious.
"You want...us to...move?" The griffins' voice was soft and sounded as if it were struggling to even breathe. The other two heads on the front side twitched slightly, the yellow and green eyes fluttering open a bit. The griffin turns it's head to the side to peer at them, it's beak clicking lightly. "We are too sore and weak to go any further. We've struggled for far too long." ((If you get confused about whose talking - the way they are talking differs. 'Red', the griffin head, speaks with underlined text. 'Yellow', the arnulf head, speaks in bold and 'Green', the tiger head, speaks in italics. They just about always speak together in monotone. The snake head, 'Purple', speaks with difficulty on his 's's and his 't's and is noted in strike text. Purple mostly leans towards the duo and Red is the main leader of the four.))

Pummel muttered a bit "Tchtoo...mrrr..." he shook his head. They couldn't sty in the trees, when night would come around they'd be goners to the enemies for sure.
He grunted and held out the berries on his limbs, slowly the thorns started to go in. He looked at them and snapped his jaw a couple times, immitating the clicks of the Griffin. He had to carry them somehow, luckily he was stronger than his tiny stems made him apear.

3 sets of eyes watch the plant creature warily, the wings shuffling just a little. What was the other kimera doing? If it was a kimera at all. They had never seen anything like it before, so they were very unsure of the species. Their beloved had never shown them a kimera that was of plant species - but then again, he only knew of the more common and occasional rare breed such as he.

He leaned his head back, looking up and down at Dro before shaking the leaves on his head and punching his berries together.
He walked around to Dro's side and looked there too before nodding to himself and walked back in front of him.
He lifted his hands over his head and immitated walking that way then pointed towards the clearing again. Now that he retracted his protective thorns he'd be able to carry them without risking more injury.

Dro narrows his eyes as the creature makes a motion of carrying him. The three heads growl softly. "We will not be carried." Dro then proceeded to weakly try to push himself upright, the three conscious heads hissing in pain as pressure is put on their wounded leg. The large kimera then proceeded to spread their wings out and beat down once, lifting themselves up enough to get the three other functional legs underneath them. The wings curled back in, still out a little for balance, but then the fourth head sluggishly comes around.

Pummel grumbled and wilted his leaves back. He knew them moving wasn't good but what could he do? He shook his head and pointed ahead again, waving with his other arm.
He took a few steps ahead of them and looked around, also checking the ground area with his roots and released his thorns again.

"Just keep walking." Red snapped wearily. "We will only be able to stand for a little while." And sure enough, within seconds of his comment, their legs start to shake, causing them to stumble once more. The snake head uncurls from the backside to give more balance. All in all, Dro was a magnificent creature. Even with four heads, they were melodic when flying, moving, anything.

He looked back at them and snapped his jaws again, moving ahead again and pulling vines out of the way. He tapped on a tree who's root was sticking out and the tree creeked and it slowly moved so they could get through. He clicked his jaw and looked back at Dro.

They wobbled slightly, wings furling out again to catch their balance. The wounded leg had started to bleed again, the arnulf head leaning down to lick it lightly. Red turns to snap at Yellows' ear, receiving an angry growl for it.
"Stop it. You'll only make it hurt us even more." "Do you not think I know that? I am trying to not leave a blood trail for enemies to find us." "Will you two stop bickering? We are causing too much energy to be wasted."
