become her priestess. All who come to this clearing will have Mother Nature’s blessings and protection. I want to give you something to help you protect Kerwyn as he grows into the man and wizard that he will become. Take it and help him unite all of the creatures of Mother Nature. You will need it to protect yourself when you approach the dragons. But be careful; for they are a very old race and have been here since the time the first Legendary Wizard battled the Evil Master. There were even Dragons that changed sides in the middle of battle. Do not ever fully trust or turn your back on some of the more unpredictable Dragon species, for they may just be the ones that you will need to run from when the war truly starts.”
    With that, the voice in Master Sernett’s head disappeared and looked down at his outstretched hands where they had been touching the tree. Now there stood the most beautiful staff he had ever seen and it was made out of the same crystal that the tree was made of. It sparkled and glowed with an inner light and sitting on the top of the staff was a small pointed leaf, making the staff appear as though it could even be used as a spear. While Master Sernett was examining the staff, he could feel the One Power surging within it. He knew that he was holding a very powerful magical relic, one that could channel and focus the One Power. With such a staff as this, Master Sernett was confident that they now had a chance to save the world.
    “Thank you Tree and Mother Nature. I shall wield this staff for the good of the land and in Mother Nature’s name.” Master Sernett cast one last glance at the great tree and bowed his head to it. Then he turned back to face Kerwyn and the tree sprite with a look of pride on his face.
    “Kerwyn, my boy, you were right. You did what needed to be done and I’m very proud of you. You are growing stronger in your magical ability and control over the One Power. One of these days you are going to be the greatest wizard this land has ever known.”
    Kerwyn smiled at what his master had said and then looked down at his Master’s hands to see that he was holding the most amazing staff he had ever seen. The tree sprite then also noticed what he was holding dropped to her knees, “Master Sernett you have been blessed with a mighty gift from my great tree and our goddess, Mother Nature. You both will be forever welcome in this holy clearing as honoured guests and as you both now belong to Mother Nature, she also belongs to you.
    “Tree Sprite, what of the imps just outside of the clearing? I had almost forgotten about them,” Kerwyn asked
    “Please, my name Tree Brother is Sal-A-Re. You are the first humans to ever know my name. A name can be used in evil magic and we the fairy creatures are very secretive of our names. Names can give an evil wizard power over you. He could make me want to leave my tree, and if I ever left my tree for long time and could not return, I would die and be no more. But you two are kindred now and if you should ever need some aid, just call my name into the forest and the trees will tell of your need. Just remember that I am unable to leave this clearing but as Mother Nature’s priestess, I will have my ways. Now as for the imps, I sense that there are about thirty-three of them hiding, waiting for you just outside. They are not with the Evil Master or his creatures. So far they are just curious as to who is hiding in here. They have no way to see through your master’s sigils, and now there is no way they could enter this clearing because of the power of my tree.”
    “We cannot stay here forever, Sal-A-Re. We need to get on our way to find the Forest Elves,” explained Master Sernett. “I just hope they are as friendly as you have been and welcome us into their domain. I fear that we may have a rough road ahead of us and a place to take shelter from the rain would be nice. But I am afraid that the rain will be the least of our
