Chapter 6

As Bilgritik grew in stature and age, so did his insights and wisdom. Decades
had transpired since his second audience with the Guardian of the Summer
Grove. He had come to the Grove with questions, yet left with conclusions
that he, himself had made. The mere presence of the Greenhoof let the
insights bubble forth as a fountain from its depths.

But again, the Greenhoof left him a question to ponder. 'Take some time and
tie the Forces of Chaos into both Life and Creation.' he posed. They then
discussed the Tree, many of whom whose guidance had helped Bilgritik on his
Journey. It was to be the Ancients decision, not the decision of the
Greenhoof if he would ever find company and solace in the Tree of Life's
Branches.

As the time trudged forward, Bilgritik went about shaping creation, and in
his wake life had sprung. It was the Cycle that he was beholden to, as trees
were uprooted from the quaking stone, grasses, sedges, shrubs, quickly filled
where their canopies had shaded out Life. As quickly as the flora returned,
so to did much more fauna, finding these edge habitats places of great
abundance.

As he traveled the surface though, he felt something pulling at his soul, the
Stones called his blood, and he could not resist but answer.
