GACK!!!

Somehow--! Suddenly I think chopping down trees might be a really bad idea! Err... yeah, I'm uh... Sorry guys, but I don't think I'll be cutting your wood anymore! Hope that's not a problem!

Argh... I need to find a new job. Lessee what could I do? Er... didn't I fish last time I was here?

[At this point he's really not sure if he's

Is something bothering you, Lloyd?

[fixmyresolve]

Er... well... that is...

[Is scratching his head over here. Literally. This whole thing will require some thinking and some speculation.]

[eccentricsniper]

[She looks at him with a very worried expression.]

What in the world has you so disturbed, dear?

[fixmyresolve]

Uh, no, it's just...
I remembered something, but it doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

[memento_mods]

(Shall I update the job post with Lloyd not a lumberjack anymore? :O)

[fixmyresolve]

((OOC: I was actually going to request to switch it today. Being a little slow over here.

Could I possibly switch him back to pole fisherman? Please/sorry/thanks?))

[memento_mods]

(Done.)

[shoukanjutsu]

. . . Why, yes. That's the name of the World Tree. Keeps the mana in balance, I believe, though I haven't yet remembered the specifics.

[fixmyresolve]

Hrmmmmmm....

I think I've seen it before. No, I definitely saw it! Maybe.

[Weak laugh.] Actually, I don't really understand what happened so well, but I think I was the one who named it, unless I just dreamed the whole thing up. I coulda done that, too.

[shoukanjutsu]

. . .

Lloyd, the World Tree has been keeping my world intact for more than a thousand years.

[fixmyresolve]

But that can't be right! I saw it...!
It was just a little seedling and then this woman I'm not sure who she was exactly, because she said she was a lot of different things that had nothing to do with one another told us that--

[Yes, he knows he sounds crazy. He's just going to stop while he's ahead.]

[catslooklikeme]

Lloyd? What's the matter?

[fixmyresolve]

Er... well, I just remembered something. I think.

That's all!

[catslooklikeme]

Something bad? ...involving forestry?

[fixmyresolve]

Err, no... but it's got to do with a tree.

[deusexblastia]

Y'know, I can see people doin' morally objectionable things, but I'm pretty sure cuttin' down trees ain't one of 'em.

[fixmyresolve]

Oy! Try saying that after remembering a really important tree that holds the world together.

[deusexblastia]

A tree that holds the world together.

[fixmyresolve]

Yeah. That's what I said. It's a really big tree.
Or it's going to be when it grows up.
