[@wisedragongirl] -- the home invader wasn't *really* a tree, it was a homeless guy with camo pants. The idea was to tell it in the same way the kid would've been seeing it, like in a nightmare, because yeah he's completely and totally traumatized by it and has no way of making sense of anything. I get the 'confusing' note a lot when I do stuff like this, and I should've learned my lesson by now.

You were definitely able to get a clear image through the child's eyes across with your writing, I really pictured large living monstrous trees entering the home :lol while crazy homeless guy does make sense, in horror stories any kind of monsters possible so I didn't think the idea of evil trees was that far-fetched.
