Ahhh… the atmosphere in the Linirean sector of the camp is so serene!

Humans, Elves, Dwarves, and various other peoples congregate beneath the banner of the Lion. Their races have a long history of working together and have been collaborating for centuries.

In contrast, the Arboreans are newcomers to the Linirean ranks. But you wouldn’t be able to tell so from the way they seamlessly blend in.

Their amiable, peaceful ways make them easy to get along with.

The camp bustles with Arboreans of all ages and sizes. Despite their numbers, they are a quiet people that mostly keep to themselves. Little is known of them, and their kind remains a mystery to most.



But not for long! I, Sheepy, the intrepid Ovine Reporter, am determined to interview these magic beings of nature and delve deeper into their wisdom.

As I approached them, the Arborean Emissary nodded at me solemnly, and Nyru's eyes twinkled with mischief as he greeted me. "Sheepy! About time you interviewed us!"

Sheepy: “What can you tell me about your kind, the Arboreans?”

Emissary: “We are beings born from the living, beating Heart of the Everadiant Forest. Our corporeal forms can be borrowed from elements of our surroundings such as bark, leaves, and rock…”

Nyru: “Some of us resemble humanoids as a result of imitating foreign travelers. Like I did! I thought legs looked funny.”

Emissary: “Either way, when our time is done, we’ll become one with earth and soil, and our lifecycle begins anew.”



Sheepy: "But how long is that? By the looks of Nyru, he can’t be more than ten…"

Nyru laughed. “Guess again” he said “I’ve been protecting this forest for hundreds of years. Or lifespans are far greater than those of regular lifeforms.”

Sheepy: “That’s fascinating. I had never met an Arborean before I came to Everadiant.”

Emissary: “Our lifes are dedicated to tending for this Forest, so it is uncommon for our kind to travel far from home”

“Some of us are more curious than others though…” - added Nyru, smiling.

Sheepy: Why did you join the alliance?

Emissary: “Even though we are caretakers, we will not hesitate to use the powerful forces of nature to defend the land we nurture against threats.”

Nyru: “As of late, Wildbeasts have become more hostile against our kind, creating chaos across the forest. Their leader, Goregrind, commands his forces to take over the forest and carve a path to its core, where the Heart is.”

Emissary: “We must protect the Heart, the source of our life and all of Everadiant's. For you see, we are one and the same, and we shall all share its fate. "


The interview with the Arboreans left me with a profound realization: we are all interconnected. Just as the roots of the Everadiant Forest intertwine, so too are we bound to one another.

We would even share a fate with the Dark Army, were the world to wall under the Overseer's control. I understood it better than ever: we must be united, despite our differences.

Sheepy out!
