As the tree spirit bolted down the dirt path, its massive size moving swiftly away from the city It could sense dark corrupted spirits following them, spying for the enemies. Quickly, it neared a dense forest before crashing inside, easily weaving its way passed trees. The air felt lighter and pure do to the more holy spirits that resided within these woods. 

Slowing its pace, the wooden bear spirit stopped in a small clearing, varieties of flowers decorating the soft grass. A giant tree was in the middle, its large roots sticking out, surrounding a large opening within the trunk that could easily fit twenty people as the inside had a spiral wooden staircase up to other levels.
A clean stream trickled over some rocks and over the left side of the clearing.

Laying down to let the group off, the tree spirit waited patiently until they were off before looking at them, standing on its hind paws. [B]"You may recover here... Those before have odd magic on their side, but this place will keep you all safe for a little while."[/b]The Tree Spirit spoke.
