[GROUP ONE]

You're in a small dome-shaped chamber, the walls and floor made of white frosted glass. It's cool here.

In the middle of the floor is a small flame, with no apparent source of fuel. Arranged around it are five gleaming copper objects, each labelled:

a tiny watering can (GROWTH)
a winding watch the size of your thumbnail, which you can set to run backwards or forwards (TIME)
a heart (CARE)
a mesh bag full of copper flakes (STRENGTH)
a lump of what seems to be metallic clay, which you can mold into whatever shape you want (CHOICE)

“Feed the flame,” Firebird says. “Today is for creation. Consider what you may make, and why.”

Time and growth are what trees need, though! Lots of both!

That's true. You'd think I'd know how trees work... [rubbing the back of his head] How long do they take, in real life?

Years! Some trees can get really, really old.

Things I didn't know. That's kind of cool. Do they get older than a lot of people?

Yup ♪ hundreds of years longer, some of them.

That's a lot of years! Think ours will be one of those?

I think it should be. I hope it has lots of kids so we can get a forest.

[thumbs up] Sounds good to me. I kinda miss the woods from Beauty's realm.

I know I do.

Hey, you think we'd be adding to Firebird's realm, with this game? Her games always feel like they... connect to her, is that the word?

I dunno. She'll probably keep the stuff— there's a room in her castle where we found a bunch of things from her old games last time.

Seriously? I didn't know that. Which games?
