"Sir, he's on the right spot, activate the trap as our orders say!" Said a scouting owl, "Affirmative, he's done for" said a soldier owl, the trap was now active, two nearby trees fell towards Kei'taro, they would mean death unless he could dodge them somehow, the test was already ongoing, and the falling trees were already part of it.
