(I presume it encountered the leaver-of-footprints, who would then appear to be a wizard. Based on the Unicorns statements, if it was a Wizard it may have been the PW's creator - perhaps returning to collect his evolved breed. Maybe point out we're both after them, and none of us are Wizards ?)

"Parley? That a new one. You never wanted to talk before."
The Treant then switches to Druidic. "You don't strike me as an ally of the evil wizard. How came you to this island and what is your business here?"

"Run thy sword across my chains, Silver Lady, that I may join your dance.”
Speaking in Druidic Tempe's hands come together as the flame goes out in a respectful bow "My name is Ignis Tempestas I have friends that do not speak this though it pains me not to continue conversing in it." He switches to common "I am a monk of the Monastery of the Sun and the Druidic circle of wildfire. And no friend of this evil wizard you speak of and me and my friends have been trying to cleanse this Island of this wizards creations."
"To make this place safe for all life. We have journeyed far with common people escaping persecution death from a hoard of evil beings. The common people I spoke of need protection. So we do what we must. We are hurrying to stop the purple wraths from killing them the people that have settled here. But could use some help."
Still speaking in druidic the Treant responds, "There are several nests in the other direction. If you speak the truth then you should deal with them first. The Purplewraths are no threat to the colonists as they don't stray far from their nests."

Pleased that the discussions seem to be going well, although in a language he does not understand, Randall relaxes from combat readiness and asks Tempe, "Does the treant know where the remaining Purplewraiths are?"

"If you have destroyed some of the nests and found one abandoned then the evil wizard has harvested his creations. That is good news for me! It means he is done with this island. Although I fear it may bode ill for others. Who knows where he has taken them and for what purpose?"
The Treant now moves slowly and peacefully toward where he originally came from to take up sentry there once again.
"Thank you for your efforts and I'm... well, I'm sorry I acted in anger. Hopefully the evil wizard will never return, without any Purplewraths here there is no longer any reason to."

OOC. I'd call that a very successful non-lethal encounter. Nice
"I've told him of our deeds in destroying the nests, and where. The treant thinks we've completed our mission here. But the wizard has taken the last wraths from the Island."
He thinks upon this
"I still think we should check on the colonist. Perhaps track down the wizard wherever this person is."
Bow compliments tempe on how he handled the situation. "smart move to use his language, let's check up on the colonists indeed, even if purplewraths are gone, we have been gone from the site multiple days."
You all notice that Bow seems pretty eager to get back to the colonists.

Tempe walks over to the treant In Druidic he says "I'm sure it pains you to brings back such memories and I apologize. But could you tell us what you know of this evil wizard? Do you know his name? How long ago did the wizard come here?" Tempe looks attentive hoping for a good story.

Now, back to the landing site?
Ooc. Also, wasn't there talk of Pirate Treasure to find before we head back to the mainland?
Tempe turns to Randle

He thinks upon this
"I still think we should check on the colonist. Perhaps track down the wizard wherever this person is."
He wonders how they can get off the Island.
