Walking the Tree
“Once Lillah had finally finished taking Phyto's attention, I got to talk to him.
"Lillah ignored me the whole time in Thallo," I told him.
"She had other things to think about, Morace. You know that. Think about how sad she must have felt that her mother wasn't there. And that the people she thought would be her family didn't welcome her. Think how you would feel if it were you." I have never been so scared. We saw these big rocks which looked scary enough but then they started to... move. Rocks come to life. They looked hungry. Who knew what they wanted to eat? We ran backwards. Rham fell over and got up so fast it was like she hadn't fallen. Zygo pretended not to be scared but he really was.
They came closer, closer. They had arms and legs, rocks with arms and legs, waving around.
"Welcome!" they called to us. "Welcome!" It was people covered in clay.
