You take flight, quickly leaving your companion behind. Above the trees you can see ocean in every direction beyond the edges of the island. Almost the entire island is covered in trees. Even from above the trees you can't seem to make out the location of the Elven community that you know is on the island somewhere.

when she realises that flying up didnt help like she thought it would she flys back down landing though not the most gracefully as she stumbles over her own feet before standing up straight. " didnt help, trees trees and water is all that can be seen no matter the direction. so on foot we go..." she says and holding out her hand spins around a few times before pointing slightly dizzily in a direction. "That way" she says before stumbling in that direction.

You manage to keep tabs on your flying companion, made all the easier as she lands back on the ground nearby shortly after. She promptly spins in a circle and begins walking toward the Northern shore of the island. You know that the beach would make for easier travel, and it's only a little bit that way down the path. The Elven community is off the Southern shore of the island. Since she's not really telling you what she's thinking, you can only assume that she's heading wherever it is that she wants to go. Regardless, you see no other signs of the tree creature, though it does make you really uneasy to be traveling through a forest while searching for a giant tree creature that can make use of magic.

she continues along her path, that she is sure will lead to the elven community. completely unaware that she is going the opposite direction of where she really needed to go. " time to box some long ears, off with their heads, they'll tell me what i want to hear or i'll burn them to the ground." she says in a sing song voice with a bit of a giggle at the end as she walked occasionally jumping up into the air a bit of a skip in her step.

"tawny where in the forest are you going? spinning in circles isn't going to help you get anywhere!!!" I say while running up. "now if you tell me where you want to get to, I have a pretty good layout if this island, I am sure that we can get there much faster than just turning in circles and wandering.(lol)

Between your earlier exploration of the island, and then your exploration of the cave the day is growing short. You know you won't be able to make it to the other side of the island where the Elves live before darkness falls. Besides, that's way too many hours to be walking anyway. Also, who wants to potentially fight a super fast tree in the forest, in the dark? It might be better if you make camp and show her the way to the Elves in the morning.

"this way fluttery friend it is getting dark quickly we won't make it back to the elven village before it is too dark to travel" he leads you to an area where a camp was made recently, "is safe down here I slept last night."

You lead your new companion back to your previous night’s camp site. It’s a little nerve racking to traverse a forest when an incredibly fast tree could leap out at any moment to attack you, but you arrive unmolested. You carefully study the trees around the camp and don’t spot any that you don’t recognize from yesterday.

she sets about gathering small twigs and what not, essentially it seems like she is making a nest, which normally would be strange but considering how she acts it almost normal... almost. Once she is satisfied she settles down in her nest curling up on her side.

While my feathered friend is making a nest for the night I get a small fire set up, get my bedroll all ready for sleeping, just like it was last night.
15 survival to catch some food for the evening.

Kosga finds a few berries and a couple rodents, but together they make a half decent meal. You both rest through the night uneventfully. You wake in the morning to the wind whipping through the trees, Leaves and small sticks having blown all over your campsite.

Standing up and stretching Kosga looks around making sure we are still safe as possible here. then breaks down camp "TIME TO WAKE UP FEATHERY ONE" he says loud enough to wake the bugs.

she jumps letting out a squeek....squak... sqoke....well what ever it was it was definetly a startled surprise noise as she scrambles up looking around very confused. "why so loud, you sing louder than the big birds in the trees" she grumbles as she looks over at him a few small branches sticking out from her hair. she doesnt seem to notice them as she is currently grooming her feathers.

It doesn’t take long to find your possessions under the sea of fallen leaves. It’s like late fall came to this island overnight. The trees around you look sparse, with only a few hearty leaves clinging to life. The air is much colder than yesterday, almost feeling like it might snow.
You travel through the trees, finding it easier to find your way without all the greenery blocking your line of sight. One tree ahead catches your attention because it’s the only one that still retains items leaves.

Grabbing tawny by her shoulder, "feathery one look over there. that tree has all it's leaves. That must be the one you are looking for. lets go.
kosga sets to head that way soon as she is ready.

"i hope the pointy ears give us lots of shiny things for freeing their friend." she says as she heads in the direction of the tree with leaves.

The pair of you approach the tree, but it doesn't look anything like the one that escaped you yesterday. As you get closer, it twists it's trunk around to face you. Shifting it's root system to take a step in your direction. This creature doesn't zip around almost faster than you can see. It seems far more solid, each step ponderous compared to the quickness the last tree showed. You're both about sixty feet away from the creature right now, what's the plan?

"this doesn't look right tawny, how many living trees are there out here? Excuse me Mr. tree can you give us some directions to find. (describes the other tree) I would really appreciate it. He looks at tawny seemingly proud.

The tree looms up over both of you, taking a step toward you it raises it's massive limbs high over head. You both think it might be about to attack you. I'll let you both take one action before this turns into a combat situation.

she takes one step back looking up at the large tree as she realises this tree probably isnt very friendly and with a quick whispered spell (mage armor) she readies herself for the attack, gone is the silly almost goofy feathered friend who had been just whimsically jumping thru the forest, before them was a much more serious bird.
(mage armor ac is now 16)

Seeing the imminent attack coming down at me, I step forward in front of my feathery companion, My greatsword comes up at the ready."now why didn't I chose to bring an axe of this size?" he asks himself.

Tree slams it's massive limbs down on both of you, but Kosga manages to deflect the thickest branches away from both of you. Even though the bulk of the attack missed. the smaller branches and rough bark still manages to scratch and batter you both. Kosga, even with your strength, this thing almost knocked you flat. If that had hit, you're not sure you would have survived. Tawny, as the limbs retract from the ground, you can see the churned earth where they were. That could have been you, and you would not have survived such an impact. It dawns on both of you that you are over matched here, and this fight will likely only end in one way...
You're up!

Seeing the carnage that this tree has made with a single swat of it's branches. I quickly scoop up My feathered friend and start running. 1d20 + 6 to total : 18, + 6, TOTAL: 24 grapple to scoop her up in stride.
"it's time to go fluttery one that tree we can't chop down." I say while running as quickly as possible. towards the elven village if possible. double moving at all times that I can

"but but but...... fine" she grumbles not fighting him after he scooped her up as she knows somewhere in her silly often jumbled mind that she wouldnt survive that in the slightest.
