It is late at night after you have gained your wings, and the tree is surprisingly dark. All the fireflies have gathered outside, flying around the tree in a display of glittering stars. It is almost as if they little critters are dancing with joy to see the new friends joining the Tree. On the first floor's branch, the glow worms have settled, illuminating the whole bark like a shining band of Christmas lights - and they, too, are reveling in the joy of new adventurers. Explore how your new gem works, try put your leaf clothes and join the critters in their dance - or simply watch them imitate the starts in the sky. It's a nice night to meet new friends. Just bring a squirrel fur or two, it's still cold outside.

Once in the Brotherhood, always in the Brotherhood as far as Jun saw it. Barring betrayal anyway.

"It is not the largest cage I have been trapped in, but it has the most comfortable." She replied diplomatically. "I suspect there is more going on than dancing insects and leaf dresses."

There's a wry note of amusement at that, work is never done after all and a moment of peace more often than not signals a storm.

"I am Shao Jun."

While it wasn't betrayal, it was a lot of personal things among other reasons. Not betrayal, if you call wanting to find his stepfather's killer and loving a Templar "betrayal". What Arno supplied in ruthless fighting tactics, he made up for with witty enthusiasm.

At least he hoped so, sort of.

"Arno Dorian," he responded.

Getting a little serious, he crossed his arms and started speaking. "That's what we think, stranger things have happened here but no one's not quite sure where exactly it all comes from. We just suspect that there's someone higher up pulling a few strings. There's only so many places to find any clues before we hit a sort of road block. But we've been trying."

Loving a Templar, maybe, but Jun's views on them were possibly legendary in their vicious hostility. Her reasons were fairly valid though, considering she and very few others of China's Brotherhood had survived a slaughter instigated by them.

"Have you tried the roots?" Jun asked, eyebrows knitting together as she thought. "This is a tree."
