“Wait wait please can you, can you just touch my head with your alicorn please I am a girl I’ve never been with another person I believe the touch of your living horn to be a blessing.”
Uniflora's head tilts as they ponder your request."Interesting, I have given many blessings in my time, but never in such a situation. Most unusual, especially from one so intertwined with a monster such as Forlorna."
They turn away to look at the glen as they think.
Several minutes pass, but finally they turn back to respond,"Very well, I shall grant you my blessing, but first you must do something. Come with me."
The unicorn steps into the glade and waits for you to catch up. Entering the clearing, you feel a sense of calmness and joy fill your heart. What's more, the rumbling in your stomach from L's food has subsided. You feel free here, as if all your worries have been carried away.
You continue walking until you reach a s medium sized tree with white bark and purple leaves. From the tree you see flowers and fruits of varying color and shape. But Uniflora wants you to focus on the fruit. They point to a branch that has three fruits growing from it. They all look ripe and ready to eat. The first is a bright red, with dragon like scales on the side. The second resembles a plum, but it is almost twice the size of a regular plum, and it shines like glass. Finally, the third fruit is a brilliant yellow crystal whose shape is similar to a strawberry.
"Look at these fruits, they are what is know as primal fruits. Progenitors of all others. They hold many secrets and benefits, but they do not create, not on their own. They only enhance what is already there. Choose one, and eat it. Your choice will show me what lies within, and will thus inform what blessing I bestow upon you. Choose wisely."Uniflora steps back to allow you time to pick.
Saradie walks confidently reaches up takes the red scaled fruit and eats with a huge smile. She is gathering such stories to one day tell her friends and family. “Thank you most noble Uniflora.”
She inhales deeply. Raises her hands above her head. And smiles giddy with excitement.
"BOLD!" Uniflora snorts, amused at your lack of hesitation.
"Though I suppose I should have foreseen that given your temperament."They pace around you, as the fruit hits your gullet. Unlike L's concoction, this fruit is pleasant and sweet. It makes you feel full and warm all throughout your body. You can feel the flame within you building up, increasing strength.
"Yes. I can see it. A fierce heart, burning deep within you. It is your greatest strength. But also, your greatest weakness. You feel inclined to push yourself to your limit, for those you love. But in doing so, you have put yourself in danger. But if you are not careful, you will lose everything."
They approach you at last and lower their horn to your head. Bright light erupts from it and engulfs your body.
"Have you any last words? Before I offer my blessing?"
Uniflora snorts in response and closes their eyes.
"Do not lose heart, Saradie, you are strong, and brave. If you keep your heart ablaze, then you shall see them again. But be warned, when cavorting with monsters, you must take care, lest you become one of them. May the light of my blessing help guide you ok your journey. When next we shall meet again, I hope you have conquered the darkness."
The light grows blinding, and the enchanted glen vanishes as you lose consciousness. The unicorn's final words still echoing in your ear.
Your body swells with strength, and your heart fills with renewed courage.
When you awake, you are in a different clearing, alone, with the shine of dawn starting to break through the night. Looking around you notice that this clearing is more familiar, you are not far from L's house now.
You feel her energy in you again, changing your body, but you also feel a new flame within you. Fighting back against the evil.
(You have been given the elemental adept feat for fire, so your fire attacks ignore resistance. And you also have the blessing of heroism. Once per day, as an action you gain 5 temp HP and you get 1d4 added to your attacks and saving throws for 10 min)

Saradie quickly gathers her belongings checking everything, she takes several large calming breathes to reign in her emotions, then proceeds to bring the heartwood of the everburning oak to L. She scans the familiar surroundings for any new additions, perception5. "L I'm baack, I've brought the wood, I'm ready to learn."
With your perception you see that a few things have been moved around within L's home, though nothing is missing. Small sc **** marks and disturbed areas of dust are visible in the sitting room and the kitchen. Particularly around L's rocking chair that sits nearest the window. Also of note, you see that L is looking more haggard than you remember. Other than that everything looks the same in and around the house.
"Ahhhh, so you managed to grab one eh? Hehehe, and the mephits? They give you any trouble?"Her eyes widen as they catch sight of the heartwood.
"Glory be, is that a piece of the heartwood?? You actually managed to get that deep into it?!" She takes it from you and turns it over in her hands. "This is a fine piece, finer than I was expecting... It seems I was right to take an interest in you eh? Marvelous."She stops and looks you up and down suspiciously before reaching out and patting you all over.
"And yet, you are so clean, and uninjured? I would have thought the burn lands would prove more challenging. When you did not return last night I assumed it was due to you having to fight. Instead you walk in, looking well rested? And... something more..."She leans in close to your face."Something is... different about you...what happened out in those woods Saradie?"
“What does it matter, I succeeded. I want to learn to control my powers but I don’t know if you will teach me or try to kill me. You could have helped me after the bear attack, you thought I may have been killed on this quest, you poison me with your gruel. You don’t care about helping me. Show me how to control my powers!!!”
Saradie in a fit of frustration throws up her hands bringing them down thumbs together fingers spread out waves of flame erupt engulfing everything in a 15’ cone 8 points of fire damage igniting flammables.
Saradie is at first shocked by her power then screams as it ends, “You will not hurt anyone again ever!”
The flames spread out, burning most of the furniture in the room, L seems to vanish as the fire is about to make contact and a hideous cackle reverberates in the air.
"Foolish child, you dare to raise your hand against me! Get on the ground and beg for forgiveness, and I shall forget this stupidity, but only this one time!"
You look around and do not see her, but her voice is nearby.
(If you want to surrender go ahead, if not then roll initiative)
activate blessing of heroism. Reaction AoO if possible Dagger 11 damage 4 On her turn Saradie will. Movement to be within 10’ of L if possible.

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
You smell burnt flesh from your first wave of fire, but it's dissipates unnaturally quickly as L vanishes. Where she was, your dagger cuts air.
An angry growl echoes in the room as you continue it attack.
"Fine, have it your way then, ungrateful girl! I shall break you one way or the other!"
Its hard to pinpoint exactly where her voice is coming from. Not only has she turned invisible, but it seems she is also magically hiding any physical trace of her presence.
(Dex save: 19
But turning quickly you fire off another burst of flame, and you hear her cry out once more. But your second dagger attack fairs no better than the first. All is silent, but then, from your right you feel the air move as a sharp claw comes down on you.
(Attack with adv from invisible: 23)
(Damage on hit: 17)
Now you see her standing there, no longer does her face display that fake tenderness, but murderous rage.
(sorry been trying to think what she would do but I think I got it now)
A third flurry of fire explodes onto L, but with a whip of her hand she disperses about half of it. Her clothes burns and she is clearly injured by it, but she is pushing through the pain.
"Gahahaha, was that suppose to hurt? Well, I suppose it did sting a little bit, but I think the air felt it more! Gahahaha!" She laughs as she steps into your space.
Het face goes grim as she raises her meaty claw and tries to grab you by the neck, "Now....come here!"
(Contested athletics or acrobatics check, L's athletic check: 24)
(oof, yeah I hadn't actually looked at it yet. I like how I'm rolling high right now. But if it was my character they woulda got a nat 1:'(. So you are grappled, but it is still your turn. Your speed is just 0 right now as she has you in her grasp. You can try to escape as an action, or do something else)

"Have you any last words? Before I offer my blessing?"
“It’s almost time. I’ll see mother father Angalor and Frilbor soon. Thank you Uniflora.”
Saradie smiles as tears roll down as hopeful as she’s been since this all started.
Uniflora snorts in response and closes their eyes.
"Do not lose heart, Saradie, you are strong, and brave. If you keep your heart ablaze, then you shall see them again.
