Shermanleaf ponders Gattara's words. As the breeze rustles through his branches his barken features seem to soften. "You have an aura of trustworthiness to you, Shepherd of Cats. But if you wish to lend aid, how?" He then looks over at Julio and seems to harden, "As of now I have to be wary of all. For whoever has logged my brethren has struck like a thief in the night. And it is my duty to ensure the safety of a new generation."
[[ For the sake of getting more of the party engaged, would like to encourage another person to add in, seeing if you can seal the deal Gattara has set up. ]]
Donyl slowly walks up next to Gattara, his arms held loose at his sides with open palms forward.
“Ho Treefather” he calls with a respectful nod of his head “I am Donyl of the undermountain clan Coldmask and I am truly honoured to meet one such as yourself. I assure you that none in THIS party have come with axe in hand. If you would but let us examine the site of this terrible crime, we might be able to identify the culprit and help bring them to justice” He says the last while smacking his meaty fist into his palm.
"Ho, little one." replies Shermanleaf. He looks over the dwarf as if double-checking if he does indeed come without an axe. "Strange for a dwarf to be without an axe, no?" With a rustle in his leaves he seems to consider Donyl's words. "True, to have more eyes would be useful. But are your truly sure you're up to the task?" His wooden visage seems unconvinced.
Fzzt speaks up, "Tree friend, <kchurr>, did you see the ones who brought harm to your kin? If you can take us to the area, I may be able to track the fiends from there and bring justice to those who committed such sacrilege to your woods."
With Fizzt's suggestion and Gattara's words Shermanleaf seems to begin truly trusting the party. "Unfortunately I did not see the ones that did it. Or else they would have felt my wrath already." He looks over to one of the trees. "I must stay here to protect one that will one day awaken. So I cannot go with you. But I can tell you where I saw the evidence from such acts committed."
He tells of a location up North, roughly 3 days from Birakruut. Along the road and through the woods. With the descriptions of the journey to the spot you should have good odds of making it.
[[ I will post a map later with a dot for the location. ]]
(OOC: should we head back and report the situation and get maps of the areas mentioned? Maybe find out what type of creates inhabit the area so we can prepare?)
"Indeed, we should speak to Lucio Greenscale to tell them what we plan to do next lest they do something rash" says Ying now more at ease and nodding thanks to Grattara words.
Barring any objections she does just that and explains the situation and how they need time to investigate.
//light green dot being where Shermanleaf saw another treant cut down
As Ying explains the situation to Julio he seems a bit skeptical at first. But agrees, "So long as my men aren't getting hurt I suppose I can give it time."
Gattara helps to prepare some breakfast and then help to sweep the floor with her magic broom.
Then, to the others: Why! fancy a ride on my broom instead of passing through the woods? For, as long as I like the wilderness, it sure takes time
Gattara has a brooom of flying: i.e. a broom than can fly and that can hold up tp 400 pounds + she can turn into a squirell or something similar for 6 hours a day:
Ying looks to the broom skeptically as she then looks to her gear and back to the broom "Well with me and my gear I weigh around 13 stones (175 pounds). If that broom can hold me then I am willing to try"
If the party meet the weight requirements Ying will try to seat herself on the broom

She leaves Shermanleaf with a little bow.
Gattara looks quite wary and worried, thinking of someone or something troubling the woods.
She must think of the spells for the days ahead.
ooc: rations, long rest and ready to go , I'd say
[[
So resting. And then heading on the road towards the pink dot? Or checking anything else first?
Also, as a reminder, each hex is 24 miles.
Fast Pace, 30 miles per day, -5 to passive perception
Normal Pace, 24 miles per day
Slow Pace, 18 miles per day, can use stealth
Off-road in forest is double-movement. (So 12 miles per day at a Normal pace.)
If ready to leave, any marching orders? Special prep your characters are doing?

can the three of you weight less than 400 pounds?
