~Forest Folktale~

The Hollow Tree




Hello, little fawns. I guess I have some vistitors tonight, and thats always a good thing. Now, im assuming you want a story. Which one tonight? A spooky one, a happy one, a sad one. Oh how can we ever choose? Hmm....... Ah yes! The tale of The Hollow Tree or however you would like to call it. That tale is probably the only Forest Folktale that is sutiable for fawns, though you may consider the story of De Drinkplats. Lets begin our tale and perhaps I can learn your names along the way.


Our tale begins here, in the Endless Forest, with a brave deer named Pine. Pine was a muscular deer and was respected among all others. What made him so brave and tough? Well, it is said that Pine was given some power from the Twin Gods. Ha! Believe that, a deer that is the only one that gets some power like that from the Twin Gods. The Twin Gods would never allow that, they like it to be fair. Anyways, this power was stronger then any other. With this power, no harm would come to him nor the forest. So many deer respected him for this, but he had something missing in his life. I see your eyes widen, little fawns. Is it true that such a deer would be missing something? It is true. He was missing half of his heart, the piece that would give him love and kindness.



Now, the Twin Gods never told him that, for they thought he would loose his faith in the forest and stop protecting it. Pine thought he had all his heart together, but you should not always think what you have not heard or seen. But eventually, the Twin Gods asked him over for a talk. They told him, and he erupted in anger. Pine quickly made it wear off, trying to look happy. The Twin Gods told him the only way to get the piece of the heart was to do a good deed for someone. Was protecting the forest not enough?

Hello everyone ^_^ I had this pelt earlier, but, with the net work being a butt yesterday, i lost it. could one of you guys whose deer is in the Forest currently, help Rou get this pelt again please? Rou's currently at the Playground, if any of you will help her get this pelt again ^_^

What's wrong with the network? It's not connecting me! my computer's hooked up to the internet, so why's it not connecting me? is anyone else having problems with this?

The sky shimmered with the promise of a light drizzle that day, at least many of the creatures of the forest hoped so, especially the fawns. It was so hot all the time that every single forest deer had to go to the pond to cool off, even though it wasn't that big. When there wasn't room enough where the pond formed, many of the deer went closer to the Crying Idol, where they could allow the water to run over their head and neck. Rou was no different than these.

The young doe gave a yawn, walking lazily toward the pond. Come on, rain! She pleaded as she waded into the pond, enjoying the cool water rising around her shoulders. It was cool within the water of the Pond, unlike anywhere else in the forest. Even the Drinkplaats were hot and a few deer were ever seen there now. Rou gave a lazy yawn and then turned around in the water before she dipped her head slightly to enjoy the cool, refreshing water rushing through her mouth. She had thought she was the only forest deer at the pond, but she was wrong.
