...Or I at least think it's a tree apocalypse. I'm not entirely sure, it's why I'm asking. It could just be the whole nymph thing making me extra sensitive to the appearance of trees, but the ones in the city are striking me as a bit more...aggressive than usual?
Well, no, I take that back, I've definitely met more aggressive trees than this, BUT AS FAR AS THE TREES HERE GO.............look, you get my point.

Ah, the trees are rebelling. I always knew this day would come.
But nah nah nah it's deffo the nymph thing telling you that. But that doesn't mean it's nothing! Aggressive trees are nothing to sneeze at. Unless you're allergic, I guess.
So what are the trees telling you, oh Whisperer of the Woods?
Well that's the weird thing, normally trees don't tell me anything at all. At best, I can usually pick up a.......................vibe.
[After everything that's happened, vibe has easily become his least favorite word, but...it's the best way to describe it!]
These aggressive trees are using actual words, Hanna. Full on sentences, a whole speech even. None of it is any good. They sound like they're in pain...
Did they say they sent the mushrooms as a warning or something? I mean I know trees and fungi are two different species or whatever but I figure they're probably in cahoots or something.
It sounds like they're asking everyone for help... Which makes no sense if a nymph is the only one who can hear them.
Although I suppose they could expect me to pass the message along, which in that case, I am no one's delivery boy!
If you do hear anything...could you let me know? I never heard a single peep from those mushrooms, but I was only just beginning to change when that outbreak occurred. My, um...plant sense??? may not have been kicking in then.
Come on Merlie you're the Lorax, you speak for the trees! You gotta let the people know! Next thing you know, everybody's gonna get turned into a tree or something!
Well, no. Of course not. but like huh ... well i dunno if he actually IS a doctor or if that's just his like... moniker or whatever that he writes books under? dr. seuss writes childrens books that rhyme! weird little poems and stuff. super famous in my world.
anyway he wrote one about the horrors of capitalism destroying the planet called "the lorax" and the lorax is this little yellow mustachioed dude who tells this business magnate that he needs to chill the f out and stop cutting down truffula trees to make thneeds bc like, we need the trees more than we need thneeds, obvs. but anyway nobody listened to the lorax and then the environment was screwed, the end.
[Did you even read The Lorax, Hanna?
Doesn't really matter, Merlin can't fact check him anyway.]
So don't be like everybody else! At least say you t r i e d, man!
[...barely any of that made any sense to him. And yet, the parts that did make sense are all that matter, because he doesn't want to be the one who didn't try.]
Fine, fine, I'll go save all the trees or something...
