"WHERE DO YOU WANT TO GROW?" asks the sign that hangs above four doors at the far side of the spring room, the end of the path.
WE WILL FIND A WAY. Says the plaque above the Wildgulch door. WE WILL STAND OUR GROUND. Say Thorntrail's plaque. WE WILL FIGHT TO OUR DYING BREATH. Say the sign hanging over Deeplurk. WE WILL WIN. Says Mothgarden, in simple clear script.
It's raining in the spring room, and the drops that fall are salty sweet, cool and comforting in this scalding heat. No. Wait. This is not rain. It's tears. Her tears. She is here. She is here and she knows that you have come to save her. To save them. All of them. Your friends and yourselves.
In the center of the room, surrounded by green, a golden maple seed rests, two parts making a winged heart. It pulses with life, pushing back against encroaching vines, but every beat of that heart grows dimmer, the light fainter. You're almost out of time.
The nightmare tree begins to writhe and move. It is breaking free. It is making it's final assault. Above you hear birds and bugs and screaming, awful things. Above, your friends, your teachers, your neighbors fight.
This is it.
