???: Ignores Devia and looks at Gabby “And what might that little thing be? Some sort of weapon?” it chuckles, an extremely unsettling sound “I doubt that it could hurt me.”
Gabriella: They tilt their head and smiled disconcertingly. "Wouldn't you like to know, demone." they say in a distorted voice
???: gestures dismissively towards Nathaniel, a tree root hitting him in the chest and knocking him back to the tree, vines tying him up again
Nathaniel: Heaves from being hit in the chest and knocked into a tree. "What is your goal with this?" His anger grew, and faint patterns appeared on his skin.
Tseth: Grabs a small dagger from his belt and throws it at the forest entity, aiming for its chest
???: it hits, but the guardian gives no reaction. It slowly turns to Tseth and pulls the dagger out, staring at it. “Impressive.”
Tseth: “Thanks. I practice.” He prepares for an attack
Tseth: “Thanks. I practice.” He prepares for an attack
???: it ignores everyone else, instead now focused on Tseth. It tilts its head “Although, that was not a wise decision. I thought you would have known better…” A tree root hits Tseth in the back of the head, not enough to knock him out but enough to stun him
(Sorry besties- I promise there’s a way to defeat this thing—)
(question: does it have a soul?)
(Uhhhh kinda? Not really-)
(hmmmm. . . does it have something that resembles a soul then?)
Naveil notices the forest guardian is completely focused on Tseth, and he starts motioning for Heron to come over to him. Unfortunately, Heron is as dense as a rock and doesn't notice him.
(Again, not really— I already decided a weakness for this thing behind the scenes tho so dw about it—)
(We are going to beat it to death.)
Tseth: Disoriented, he stumbles a bit before regaining his stance. However, his vision is unfocused.
Alex: Pulls out a small, glowing crystal from a pouch. He focuses for a moment and glowing swirls float through the air from the crystal to Tseth. The patterns are absorbed into the invisible wound and heals it.
Tseth: “..I don’t think I’ll ever get used to that.”
Gabriella: They are tempted to throw their sparkly "weapon" at the forest guardian, but restrain themselves until a better opportunity arises.
(Again, not really— I already decided a weakness for this thing behind the scenes tho so dw about it—)
(well Ren's useless here then ;-; he hates physical violence, preffering to manipulate and attach strings to people to turn them into puppets-)
Ren: Simply watches, unamused by any of this situation
(We are going to beat it to death.)
(i vote to traumatize the heck out of the spirit or guardian or whatever)
(We are going to beat it to death.)
(i vote to traumatize the heck out of the spirit or guardian or whatever)
(see to traumatize something it needs a soul which generates, y'know, emotions-)

Naveil thought for a moment. He could just yell out what he wanted, instead of this interpretative song and dance. But that could compromise everything. He looked up at Ren, and saw him just… standing there. He made some strangled noise at him.
(We are going to beat it to death.)
(i vote to traumatize the heck out of the spirit or guardian or whatever)
(see to traumatize something it needs a soul which generates, y'know, emotions-)
(Well, it does seem to get annoyed, that’s an emotion)
( > > > We are going to beat it to death.)
( > > i vote to traumatize the heck out of the spirit or guardian or whatever)
( > see to traumatize something it needs a soul which generates, y'know, emotions-)
(In that case, I vote beat it to death.)
(dies in I was writing a rly long response that is now irrelevant bc a thing happened)
(Sobs in the character I was relying on is offline)
(I’ma type the long thing anyway-)
???: turns it’s attention to Resh, realizing that he’s trying to drag himself towards his sword and pinning him to the ground with some vines. It gestures to Juni, who is watching from the Box and clearly panicking “This small mortal… she is your daughter, correct?”
Resh: strained voice “You leave her the fuck alone…”
(does one of y'all characters have fire powers? we could just burn down the forest🧍because since this thing is a forest guardian, the assumption that they're tied to the forest itself makes sense somewhat)
(Pandora you smart bean, the thing itself can be arsoned—)
(wait so my crazy idea/theory is actually right? 😭)
(In sense, yes— me n Liz already have a plan kinda)
